During a quiet five minutes at St Aldhelms, Phil Saunders & I had a quick look at the coastguards lookout wall, as it is an invertebrate hotspot. The white walls radiate the sun and there is a nice vegetated base to the wall. There was a Grey Bush Cricket on the wall, but they are very twitchy and not for the first time for this species, it disappeared into the vegetation as soon as we got close. But there was a Dark Bush Cricket and a Boat Bug, which are species that are a lot more tolerant of a close approach with a camera.
Even better from my viewpoint, was there were two Brassica Bugs. These are another species of Shieldbug & they were a Tick for me.
