Sorry I didnt give much info it was deflinatly a young instar, it was in Derbyshire at Hardwick Hall where I survey insects, it was on the edge of a pond I dont know what plant it was on but there were loads of Green Shieldbugs around aswell. It is on hear aswell as some other unidentified insects. It is the orange and black one.
Hello I was thinking is you could help me the other day i was surveying and I came across a young Shieldbug it was orange and black I would show you a picture of it but im not sure how to use this site yet as I have only just joined. Sorry it is only vage.
Hi,
Bob is doing well, the photo has been loaded onto my site.... you can get an idea of the size, bob himself is about 5 inches long.. he went hunting last night so I lost him until this afternoon, when he returned to the pond.. should I just leave him in peace and see what happens?
Hi, I don't know if you can help me, but I've seen you give info on frogs.. I have a pond with many frogs of various ages.. I've just spotted 'bob' who has a large white / transparent growth on the end of his spine.. the size of a walnut! All the others seem fine, I'm concerned about netting him to take him to the vet becuase of the size.. any suggestions.. I've got a photo of it! Not too sure how to load it up.. kind regards -
Hi "H" you haven't been on WAW much lately - are you ignoring us - you weasel - (you will have to imagine the stupid grinning smilie , or shall I use a wink - but that might seem over familiar!)
