No fails here Mark, You put me on the path and were one off, pretty good I say! I doesn't totally look pink either
Yep much better. I found one of those just a fortnight ago so you'd think I would recognise it. Fail! :-)
Thank you both. What do you think about this one? http://www.ozanimals.com/Insect/Pink-Bel...
Wow ! what a great spotting, Stephen. Your photos are so good - nice to see the underside as well.
