Two bugs on a walnut tree leaf. What can they be?

 

The tree's in the mountains of Gran Canaria, in case that helps.

 

Another tree nearby had some larvae but my guess is they're not related. But then I'm a bug-ignoramus :)

 

Update: seems to be vine weevil, Otiorhynchus sulcatus

A woodlouse aka pill-bug aka roly-poly. You know, those little round bugs you find when you lift up a piece of wood or a rock outside.

 

What really struck me when doing these macro photos was how much it reminded me of a lobster. Which made sense when I found out that these little guys are actually terrestrial crustaceans, not insects, arachnids, or the like. Who knew?

Kristen catching the love bugs earlier.

 

Here's a funny: the first time I saw love bugs was in Beaufort, South Carolina. I thought they were two-headed bugs! You know, for defense purposes. My husband and in-laws still pick on me to this day every love bug season.

 

I told Kristen this story and she gave me a look of "seriously, that's the stupidest thing I ever heard of!"

Disney’s Herbie, the Love Bug by Politoys (Polistil) number W 2 with original packaging. This is Herbie from the first Love Bug movie, and the model duplicates its film counterpart by splitting in the middle. This die cast model is 4” long in the closed position, and it extends to 4 3/8” when opened. It was made in Italy and was purchased in 1971. The box has a picture of human star Buddy Hackett on the front and on the back has two scenes from the film showing Herbie in action.

Update ... turns out this is the 2nd record for Jersey rather than the 1st!! Just found out that Simon Robson recorded one previously tho was originally erronously ID'd as E. dominulus but is in fact E. ornata (his photo is on the British Bugs website under E. ornata) and the Channel Islands records only at present show ornata recorded on Guernsey and none on Jersey.

Bug is Goat's new 'pet.' Bug doesn't talk, but she certainly loves to follow Goat around everywhere!

Aggregation of Oxycarenus lavaterae on a linden tree in the spring (Slovenian name of the bug is "rjava lipovka", thanks to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Yerpo for the determination)

While walking around Havana we saw many old cars, mostly classic American vehicles in various states of repair. This wonderfuly maintained classic VW Bug trundled down the road and I had to take a pic.

This was a birthday cake for a little girl who loved bugs!

This is the way Spencer looks most of the time. Big bug eyes and looking a bit like he is on drugs. The next set of pictures is of everyone trying to copy Spencer's bug-eyed look. Very funny!
