Fatsia japonica is an Asian shrub which flowers in autumn. I do not have it for the Insects, and I never really considered it a shrub which the Insects would turn to for a last feed before they go into hibernation somewhere hidden away from sight and the cold.
As it was, there have been lots of Insects feeding on the flowers. The individual florets look like tiny poached eggs.

I love the big eyes stuck onto the head. Looks more like a wart to me!
This is my Fatsia japonica from my window:
The last thing I expected to photograph this month would have been a creature smothered in pollen! It is mid November after all, temperatures had dropped to minus two during the night.
