Cheers Supe. You're in the Garden of England they reckon. I bet there's loads of bugs if you look hard enough. I walk around my patch with my head DOWN! LOL..
Paul.
Last time I walked round my little garden with my head down I walked into a tree LOL..
I do try to get to my daughters as she has many more flowers and you really need plenty of them to bring the little buggers in..

You could always take pics of something Buffy has curled up Bruv!! actually it's about time we organised an excursion with cameras. . .

Supe - my garden is really quite small, and I get the vast majority of my bugs pics there. A few in the front garden, but only about 1 in every 100 out the front I reckon:
Paul.
I guess it's about what you have planted attracting the bugs. . .the water must help. . .

There are no "specially selected plants as far as I know m8. Agapanthus in the pot, rose bush, laurel shrub (gets plenty on the leaves), apple tree, clematis, spirea hiding in the corner, a few daffs or tulips sometimes, crocosmia (when it flowers), a few annuals like poppy and such. The pond is about 3 feet long and may help a little I suppose.
So as you can see, fairly common flowers, and nothing like enough really. But I get a decent amount of bugs, though I suspect Ian Clark has a better range of plants in his plot.
Paul.
Actually I think I might have to have a little visit to Kew. . . . what do you reckon Bruv? (supraman54)
