Wasn't sure which catagory this is best for. My beautiful rose bush...

what the h*ll are they ?
practicing for syncronised swimming for the olympics or gynastics?? or just plan nasty?? ???
We'll never know what was going to happen next - they all weigh about half of what they did in that photo now...
For some reason I think they're a sawfly? And now I know why they stick their arses in the air - they couldn't all fit on the same leaf otherwise!!!
"Ok lads, up, up, up .... hold it ...... hold it, he's nearly finished..."
amazing pic - if you turn it a quarter turn to the left it looks like a blowfish ;D
but I think sawfly larvae are black
I googled it - definitely sawfly lavae. Quite quite disgusting. Poor rose bush :'( :'( :'(
Those are rose sawfly larvae. Keep knocking them off, they'll soon vanish.
had no idea there were so many different varieties of sawfly - not nice looking creatures are they :o
