It's Calocoris roseomaculatus, a plant bug in the family Miridae - https://www.naturespot.org.uk/species/calocoris-roseomaculatus

We've strolled around Badbury Rings on several occasions, but likely won't make it this year because of COVID-19 :-(

Thanks for that. We've been shielding but have managed to get up to Badbury Rings a couple of times in the past two weeks. We were hoping to see Bee Orchids today but no luck. Very quiet on the actual rings although the car park was packed when we got back.
