07/06/2025 - 3 galls and a shieldbug.

Morning walk along the quiet roads. The sunshine was nice. Made it back to the house just before the rain.

We spent a couple of hours looking for little things on leaves.

Lime leaf-stalk midge gall (Contarinia tiliarum)
Cotton-wool gall (wasp)
Oak curved-leaf gall (wasp)
Forest bug on a large giant hogweed leaf.
