If you can't beat them...

30 Days Wild Day 7 - Aphids.

A busy day, would I manage to fit in my 30 days wild challenge?  A quick dash across to west Cumbria in the morning.  On the way back a short pause in the huge lay-by in Rosley.  A wander round the edge revealed a variety of possible blips.

I settled for these Aphids on "Goose Grass" to use its local name.  The Goose Grass or Cleavers (Gallium aparine) was growing well among the other plants.  The Aphids, being sap suckers had positioned themselves near the top on the soft new shoots.

Afternoon, as per usual for a Thursday spent with Kanyl.
