I went on a trip this weekend down to Cornwall to see my new Grandson, he sleeps a lot so thought as the MPE65 has only been out once since I bought it over 6 months ago that I'd stick it on the camera and have a go out in my daughters garden. Unfortunately although the sun was out and the flowers were open there weren't many bugs about.

Done a bit of looking on the web and found it to be a Red Spider Mite, never knew that they bite you and lay their eggs in you. The eggs never develop as our immune system sees them off.
