Western Conifer Seed Bug
I found this Western Conifer Seed Bug, Leptoglossus occidentalis, on a wall in central Swansea today. Although a non-native species it's certainly a large and striking bug.

I've still yet to cross paths with one of these little beasties - perhaps if I take a baked potato out with me I'll be more successful?
For info. I have images of one from September 2010
