new one to me but haven't ID'd yet. Was going to shoot the small fly not having noticed the mottled hopper which looked like a brown patch on the leaf.

Hiya Toby,

Great shots, not seen that one before another new new one to look out for, rather later I know but I found the blighter here.

I've had no time for shooting of late as I've been doing a spot of cut, slash & Shredding, my garden was in need of some TLC with a Saw & Machete :lol: my Eucalyptus Tree is now no more, bloody near killed me but it had to go, shame but it was to near the house & way to big

Cheers for now
Mark

Good spot Toby.

Lovely detail on these.

Know what you mean about shooting for stacks. I need to speed up my focussing and framing. Tried one with the dragonfly, but he kept moving his legs...
