I'll start this years thread off with a couple of insects from a walk in the woods with my homemade beating sheet & a stick
a few 12-spot ladybirds
& a sleepy Weevil that I think is Lixus pulverulentus
Last years thread is here https://community.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/f/all-creatures/206718/all-about-insects-2020
Best wishes

Lacewings, they are delicate and beautiful insects, though I've not seen any since Covid, and that is probably due to not being in the right places at the right times rather than anything else, though I've never seen them here at home.

I'm more of a bird person than insect person but they are still fun to photograph!
