A modest start to the season- almost the first 'bug' photos of the year! (I did get a couple of poor shots of a single honey bee around my woodcutting tarps a few weeks ago-- long before anything was in flower- still nothing, catkins soon! there've been tiny moths and flies, but no pics I think).
A leafhopper-fascinating that there are always leafhoppers before there are any leaves! and a super tiny beetle.
