I thought it might be a good idea to extend the ‘Norfolk Patches’ folder to include insects other than Lepidoptera and Odonata.
Accordingly, I start the thread “Norfolk: other insects”, with this post.
Stonepit Heath provided an attractive orange and black burying beetle Nicrophorus vespilloides. This was a ‘tick’. A search of my external epidermis revealed, fortunately, no others- despite the extensive bracken in this area !
A Forest Bug (shield bug) complemented the action.
