Does anybody know what this tiny orange weevil is? Found on our boardwalk a couple of days ago.

Well. I can get as far as a Picture-winged fly, but wonder whether someone could offer an ID from this photo?
Seen yesterday in the Lye Valley, Oxford.

Am I right in thinking this is one of the Ephippiger species of Bush Cricket? Saw quite a few, but none agreed to emerge from the dense vegetation for a clear photo...

We accidentally disturbed a pair of these overwintering ichneumon (?) this morning when moving an old log. Awful photos we know, but any chance of an ID? Something like Amblyteles armatorius maybe?

I'm hoping this is a Green longhorn (Adela reaumurella) moth, resting on a Cuckoo flower (Cardamine pratensis).
If so, it's another new (or newly noticed) species for our garden this year.

Does this look right for the green form of an Elephant Hawk-moth (Deilephila elpenor) larva? 🤔
About 5cm long, and spotted yesterday on Willowherb in the Lye Valley. Too breezy for a sharper photo sadly...

Last year I found one of these & ID’ed it as Cylindroiulus punctatus (blunt-tailed snake millipede) but this year, finding another, I’m less sure.
For now sticking with it as initial ID.

Predator and prey.
I saw something land on a log in front of me this morning, but couldn't work out what sort of thing it was. Not surprising really since it was two things. Can anyone give me an ID for either or both insects please?
