Sunshine at last !
Decided to cast a few clouts in the garden before the May blossom is out.
I'm preparing a large bed for a mass of summer flowers...insect friendly of course.
A few bits and bobs were photographed during several rest periods

| Esperia sulphurella |
Several E. sulphurella were seen flying around the compost heap, which is mainly shredded prunings and branches.
Two Argyrotaenia ljungiana were also netted and checked.

| Apple Blossom |
The "Golden Hornet" crab-apple blossom opened today, amazing what a bit of sunshine will do.
 |
| Wasp, not sure which species. |
 |
| Tawny Miner Bee |
Lots of Ladybirds around, most were the familiar 7-spot, but 3 other species were present...........
