    #3 is a Hairy Shieldbug (Dolycoris baccarum) previously known as Sloe bug.

    Not sure about the last one; probably something we don't get here. Most of the Squashbugs/Leatherbugs tend to have expanded tips to the antennae so I wonder if it could be another species of shieldbug?

    Exquisite photography! For some reason #3 really stands out to me.

    Good set David, you have certainly got a good selection there to choose from.

    Still have a shortage of bugs around here and I've only managed one single lizard over the past couple of months.

    Cheers, Grahame

    Nice series. Spend a lot of time shooting the small ones in the summer months in Ohio.

    Really like the capture of the stink bug in #3.

    Thanks Grahame, you are doing just fine without the bugs for now mate!

    They are slowly but surely reappearing here, still a tad windy though

    Cheers David
