Morning Glory Comma, Dock Flat Horn

The morning glory on the front hedge looked glorious this morning with droplets from the rain we had overnight. This comma butterfly was in a very similar position to the red admiral that I posted recently. This had to be my blip as butterflies are so very few and far between this year.

I've added an image of a tiny Mirid, which I've only photographed once before ten years ago. It has strange flattened antennae, its scientific name, Heterotoma planicornis, means flat horn. I love its green legs. It's meeting, what I think is, a dock shieldbug nymph on a dock seedhead.
