Bug Hunt in Strong winds! (ID?)

Paul Iddon

Images not particularly sharp, sorry. Today it is very very windy, but I spotted these bugs on the apple tree and wondered what they were. One of them, you'll notice, flew and landed on the bird table, but even that was moving in the wind too! And probably the camera was being moved as well - yes, the gusts were that strong!


So over to you guys for identification please!

Lovely series Paul- all look like Mirid/capsid bugs. Think the last few shots are of adults and nymphs of Heterotoma planicornis with those distinctive antennae.

Very nice! I like the detail and how the context scales the insects. The last one is my favorite.
