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!

These could be Monkey beetles...not sure.
Sie fressen zwar gern junge Blätter, aber wirklich böse kann ich ihnen nicht sein, wo sie doch so fotogen sind. :)
Morning hoverfly.... happy Friday!!! I used to live next to 2 acre lot and I could go in there and get photos like this all the time. The lot now has a house on it and now it’s so much harder to find these opportunities. All of my photos are taken out side, found subjects in their natural habitat.

Santa Rita Prickly Pear Cactus blossom and a bug. Southwest Arizona, USA. Full frame. Dedicated macro lens. No crop. No post processing.
More than 30 species in North America go by the common name "jagged ambush bug" and they are difficult to tell apart. So I introduce Phymata sp., a relative of assassin bugs--both assassin and assassin are well camouflaged insectivores that sit, wait, and pounce. The assassin bugs have very strong front legs, and can hang on to a prey specimen larger than the assassin bug.

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.
Lady bug on new growth of the guava tree.
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
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!
