Nettle Residents.

This time of year i start looking among the Nettles, trying my hand at Macro photography. Very frustrating as any wind or movement on my behalf leaves a blurry result.

Anyhoo heres a few beasties i saw yesterday some are really tiny.

Froghopper.



Cocksfoot moths on Buttercup, really tiny insects.



Nettle weevil.



????



Fly ???



EEEK



More moths



Beetle.






Missed a pod of 20 Bottlenose dolphins that are still about.
