You are such a sweetheart Sckel! If I had the power I would blow a lot of wind and sunshine in your direction! Thanks for your funny comment! I have to study the second picture of your bug now :)
My fame is not the best among insects in my backyard. But I just want some pictures. I only got two photos of this species. I rarely see them and they do not like my insistence. The second picture says it all. I actually saw the hate in his eyes. Today I found a beetle tortoise and it was incredibly sweet to me. Good winds are blowing in my direction. :)
These are small, thin and grumpy. Look at my: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/340... I think your is Dicyphus epilobii.
Just study the manual, I regret I never read it which I'm going to start it, hopefully soon :)
Yup! And you were right, it is a bit tricky :) But it is getting better at least... Luckily there are a lot of small objects to practise on in Africa :)
