Aphids are back.

I just found a few aphids on a tomato plant.
The second image is, I think, of a Moss seedhead which has released all its spores. Please correct me if I am wrong or add some more information perhaps.

Indeed! Welcome back! A good set.
I don't know what those mossy things are. Spores released from the capsule of the sporophyte just float off in the breeze. Maybe a parasitic fungus got into the moss?

Brenda, welcome back, and once again, a very nice series. I find aphids to be quite interesting with their relationships with ants so thanks for sharing your find.

Thanks Gary, I am hoping to see more insects after a long winter of finding very little.

Brenda I really love your photos especially the aphid. They are starting to come around in my California garden as well.
Great to see you back again. I have missed seeing your photos and your narrative. I was even going to fly to England to look you up and ask where the heck have you been. Glad your interest is revived. I hope to se more of your very fine work.

Thanks Dennis, hopefully subjects to shoot will be coming back as the weather settles here. It was nice to hear from you.
