This is the first Painted Lady I've seen this Spring. Also a Wingless Nymph or Wingless Grasshopper, never quite sure what to call these things. I don't think their wings ever develop, I've never seen one with wings since we moved into the Village 8.5 years ago.
And they are all through our garden. I've also never seen them cause any damage to our plants, they love to sit on my hand to keep warm. I picked this one up and it refused to leave my hand and get back onto the bush.

Never noticed how dusty they are close-up..?
