Re: Some insects for ID

It is certainly a Lygus sp as Jason says, but this is often a very difficult group to identify. The density of hairs and punctures on the forewings is important, as is size - both of which can be difficult to determine from a photo. Lygus pratensis looks like the most likely option to me but I wouldn't bet on it!
