Easter Saturday a trip to High Wood near Bradbury Rings, and the result a set of shots that all feature the colour yellow.
A field edge full of dandelion flowers produced some good opportunities for both flower and insects alike. First the flowers themselves;

Then inside some of the flowers lurked a predator, in the form of crab spiders…
