From my archives. I must have wanted to be a bug that day, given that I crawled around on the ground trying to see how an insect might see its world.
Do they feel a sense of accomplishment after they climbed to the top of a blade of grass?

I spotted this Birch Shield Bug on a leaf at the Botanical Gardens. It reminded me of the stink bugs we'd seen so many of back in Maryland, but I had not seen anything like this in Alaska. Apparently it likes the birch trees up here which sadly are under attack from pests similar to this. Even so, this insect has some interesting colors!

Do birds watch bugs the same way people watch birds? In case you are thinking the goldfinch wants to eat the bee, they don’t eat insects, only nuts and seeds.
Thanks for your views, faves and comments! They are so much appreciated!
With the temperature starting to rise (15-17°C (59-63°F), the Spring Flowers starting to bloom and some rain (about 18mm or 3/4 inch) over the past 10 days we are starting to see some insect life in the garden.

Taxi to grab it:
Pentatoma rufipes belongs to the Pentatomidae family and has a length of 12 - 15 mm. It is thus one of the largest bugs in Central Europe. The species is abundant and occurs throughout Europe and northern Asia. Adults can be found near forests and parks from July until November.
Overblown bug
Don't worry it's just a ventilation unit.

Harlequin Bug Nymph. Photographed in Maryland.
Single frame. Canon 80D, Canon MPE lens, Canon twin flash, Aperture f/11, shutter speed 1/250, ISO 400.
While out back saw this bug (have no idea what it is, had never seen one before) on the other side of a firewood pile moving in slow motion, ran in to get a camera and tried to get a good shot while leaning over the wood pile and not falling over it however, before the camera could be set to focus on the eye this green bug flew away (think the camera got to close as the lens was about 6 inches away while the feeble minded operator was rocking back and forth on the wood pile).

Story;
Took this on a Family trip in July(?) 1972. We were doing the Indiana covered bridges. The camera used was just a "used" Kodak Brownie Flash 20. Basically, this was the start of my photo interests.
Or stink bug. I had no idea these stink bugs went through instar stages! That's the cool thing about photography... it gets you to looking closer at the world around you and you find out interesting things! I think this bug is maybe 4th or 5th instar. These are the guys that put an end to my squash, tomatoes and cucumbers for the year. I don't know whether to be grateful to the little pests or dislike them more than I already do! LOL Have a wonderful day everyone!

Color patterns are connected to their living quarters: generalists that live pretty much anywhere have fairly simple patterns of two strikingly different colors that they wear year round. Others that live in specific habitats have more complex coloration, and some can change color throughout the year. Specialist ladybugs use a camouflage coloration to match the vegetation when they're in hibernation and develop the characteristic bright colors to warn off predators during their mating season.
Have a happy day/evening
