Hiya all,
Again not sure what this is apart from some sorta beetle, there were loads flying around but none wanted to land in the strong wind so I had to make do with a quick shot or two & this was the best of the bunch.
Cheers for now
Mark

Nice shot Mark, very sharp :) Lovely colours, and to boot it looks like a pregnant female!

probably Oedemera nobilis, female. Males have swollen hind legs.

hiya Racketman,
Thanks for the info, the mind surely boggles as to why the male has swollen hind legs.
Cheers for now

Lovely colours, the more pale green and white of the flowers combine well with the bug.
