Last year a Green-Veined White, Pieris napi, pupa appeared next to the lock on my main door, so all winter I had to be very careful when I was fitting my key into the lock, especially at night. This spring the butterfly didn't emerge despite, as the image shows, the pupa having wing and antennae bumps. So I feel simultaneously blessed by its presence and sad it died before taking flight. I think it was attracted to my garden by Ladies Smock aka Blodyn y Gog the "county flower" of Brycheiniog. Also named L: Cardamine pratensis, E: Cuckooflower, C: Ffedog y Forwyn, C South: Blodyn Llaeth and C North: Blodyn Llefrith, and because "cuckoo stockings" is as adorable as foxgloves C: Hosanau'r Gog.

Found on the underside of an oak leaf, this looks like the aftermath of a very small demonic ritual.
On closer inspection they appear to be empty pupae from a leaf-hopper maybe?
No idea about the spider either 🤷♂️

A Ladybird pupa - not sure what species, I'll have to try and catch a look once it emerges. 🐞😍

I prefer to work very detailed, with psychedelic patterns that just come out of my mind.

The chrysalis of a Silver-studded Blue butterfly with Lasius ants attending to it. The caterpillars pupate inside or near to ant nests, often with multiple chrysalises lodging together in the same nest.
