I dont envythe post processing you had to carry out - I could barely bring myself to delete a swallowtail photo, let alone as many as you had! |

I'll delete them next year when I hopefully will get more!! |

Here's a few more of my pics, starting with some longhorn beetles: Agapanthia villosoviridescens...  Strangalia maculata...   
Wasp Beetle - Clytus arietis... 
A 7 Spot Ladybird making short work of a greenfly in the doctor's garden... 
A couple of hoverflies: Volucella pellucens...  Helophilus pendulus... 
An ichneumon who looks like shes ovipositing under a screw head...  
A caddis fly... 
And finally, a nettle weevil...

Oops! Nearly forgot...
Here's the beetle we saw very early on the Saturday morning in the reeds at the side of the Norfolk hawker ditch... 
I'm thinking the leaf beetle Donacia vulgaris is a distinct possibility - right time of year, right habitat, right size and shape.
