Walking on Water

Paul Iddon

I found a few aphids in the garden after the downpour tonight as well, which narturally created a couple of opportunities for a nutter to shoot them with a camera rather than shooting them with Bifenthrin or Pyrethrum...


Of course, you can't just do a "greenfly" photo willy-nilly, so I had to wait for one to walk all the way across one of the leaves on the rose bush until it got itself in a situation where it had to go upwards rather than anything else (I assume aphids are too stupid to merely do a 180)..

So here is one such aphid, about to try and "Walk on Water"...

Could have been better maybe, got a few more which were all so-so.
