    First one is a Woundwort Shieldbug. Always difficult to photography due to the shiny surface'

    The beetle is Rutpela maculata (Black & Yellow Longhorn). Sometimes it is impossible to find the required angle, particularly when you need to see a particular area for identification. So when moving leaves or bits of grass around I also often disturb my subject which promptly disappears. With that image I suspect you may achieve a better scene by cropping closer and losing some of the right side.

    The last one is a Cream-spot Ladybird. There appears to be a few more of them around this year.
