Two? Hoverflies. Second pic may be same as the top one in first pic.  
A very handsome chap - Longhorn beetle? 
A frog hopper that flies? There were lots of these on old pasture land.  
And what is the fly in the second pic? This one was really tiny - didn't see it 'till I cropped the picture!
Many thanks.  |

Evening Jenny,
The two Hoverflies in the first image are two of this year's migrating success stories - Episyrphus balteatus ( top) and Scaeva pyrastri ( bottom). The next image shows just E. balteatus, but joined by Plantbugs Plasiognathus arbustorum probably, and one I'm not too certain of.
The next image shows another Plantbug, Calocoris stysi.
The last is of the Leafhopper Cicadella viridis, and I think the fly may be of the Dolichopodidae family - but not certain.
Take care, Jason  |

Those Leafhoppers are so pretty. |

The mirid is now known as Grypocoris stysi, btw. |
