I've spotted several tiny white flying insects. They're pure white, flat and angular and look like a small speck of cigarette ash. They seemed particularly interested in the roses. Does anybody know what they are?
In London. Keen but lazy.

    I'd go with that too @mikeymustard.
    It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....



    I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

    If they couldn't, there might not be so many of them😉
