sharing the pavement with red legged shield bugs

After today's lunchtime walk round Corstorphine Hill, Crafty Green Boyfriend and I noticed there were a few red legged shield bugs on the pavement of the busy Corstorphine Road. These two were so oblivious to the traffic that they were busily working on the next generation of shield bugs!

They must have been blown down from the overhanging trees by the wind, which was pretty strong. Unfortunately there was no easy way of moving them to safety!

These red legged shield bugs are woodland insects and rarely to be found on pavements....
