Insect Bite
I was (foolishly) out on the allotment at twilight last night, in unfastened
canvas shoes. And surprise surprise, i got an insect bite. Unusually, I saw the little bugger that did it, and it wasn't something I can name (although I've seen them before, but I've mostly ignroed them) It was about ... 1/8 inch long, shaped approx like a tiny moth or grasshopper (kind of the shape of a grain of rice) and it was grey-ish colour, possibly grey and white stripes. I did manage to grab it, but tried not to squash it to ID it, then when I let go it boinged off - think it was a jump not a flight. And it left a little blob of blood where it had been slurping at my ankle. Any clues? -- |
