Green tiger beetle spotted in the woods near Castell Coch. My daughter and I were very excited to see this species 馃
Huge thanks to @amentsoc and @BritEntSoc for a great time today celebrating @insectweek @DintonPastures. We really enjoyed it.
At first I thought this might be some insect eggs but it turned out to be way more interesting. These are freshly hatched shield bug nymphs and their empty egg casings. @insectweek @thiswordistaken @Buzz_dont_tweet #insectweek

This pond has only been here about 6years behind a housing estate and is home to many dragonflies. The wild patches round the footpath are full of insect life too. @BDSdragonflies #pondwatch
