Hiya all,
Ere I nearly forgot this little critter, at least I think its a Leaf Hopper ???? actually I think it looks like my neighbour but don't tell him lol.
Had devil of a job to persuade it to come out of hiding it just didn't wanna play, right thats it for today, maybe.
Cheers all
Mark

Good capture- pity you couldn't get more of it to come out :)
Definitely a leaf hopper- it's got the Alfa Romeo radiator grill on the front.

You've done very well here Mark - excellent detail and very sharp. Pity you didn't convince it to come out more and grab more shots, but some is better than none.
