I appreciate #WildWebsWednesday usually celebrates our beautiful fauna and flora together in harmony, but for my walk in a blustery Waveney Valley yesterday with not much staying settled for a photo op in the wind, all I could get was a wasp on a metal gate and ladybirds nestled on a lamppost bolt

Bombus terrestris and Linaria vulgaris for #WildWebsWednesday - Buff-tailed Bumblebee and Butter and eggs (Common Toadflax). These along the #MonarchsWay on the South Downs on Saturday.

#WildWebsWednesday Such a privilege to spend a few minutes watching wild roe #deer at the weekend. Not the sharpest photos, taken on long zoom so they could go about their business, but 3 seen all looking healthy and happy. #Arnside #Lancashire

#WildWebsWednesday #Autumn colours coming through fast and furious now, some still attached, some fallen and glowing from backlit sunshine. Stunning! #AutumnLeaves #Lancashire

Eristalis tenax on Ivy. #WildWebsWednesday #Hoverflies #Diptera

Marmalade hoverfly on Chicory in the garden. #WildWebsWednesday #Hoverflies #Diptera

Can anyone help with identifying this, please?

I assume it's some sort of protective cocoon, but for what #insects, I just don't know.

Quite a large mass, attached to a stem of Agrimony at Lorton Meadows in Weymouth.
