The quote from the animation Bug's Life by the Grasshopper "You let one ant stand up to us, then they all might stand up! Those puny little ants out number us a hundred to one and if they ever figure that out there goes our way of life! It's not about food, it's about keeping those ants in line."
Textures applied and glass panes applied to this doll house of horror through photo slides. The rest is an art display by Jennifer Angus.
Bug is pretty hard to identify in this photo but it is firmly held at the tip of the beak. I probably would not have posted this if it were not my very first hummingbird image of 2022 ... :)
Rufous Hummingbird - Juvenile or Female

Stink bugs get their name from the unpleasant odor they produce when they are threatened. Predators prefer meals that smell good.

Psyllid Bug (genus Acizzia)
Spotted on our Plum Tree today. These wee ones are around 3 mm in length.
One of the thousands of beautiful and harmless bugs we find in the fields.
Uno de los miles de chinches hermosos e inofensivos que encontramos en los campos.
Blooming in at the end of summer and into fall, our plants of Sedum 'Autumn Joy' are not only beautiful, but they give the insect world one last feeding frenzy before the cold winter arrives.
I spent an hour or two on my stomach, back, and knees the other day revelling in this micro environment, enjoying the colors, critters, and the cool air! Hope you're enjoying it with me through Flickr :)
D500, 105mm, our garden landscape...
The look on this poor bison bull's face expresses well his discomfort from the hundreds of buzzing biting bugs hovering around him. Rolling in his dusty wallow helps him fight them off, but only for a few minutes. Poor fellow.
Normally post only 1 photo a day but posted these 5 in order to show what Bison and other critters have to put up with bugs. Wanted to dose him down with deet......must say, would drive me crazy.....
Thanks, as always, for taking a look and for any comments, faves or suggestions.
This bug is actually called a Goldenrod Soldier Bettle, Chauliognathus pennsylvanicus Or Pennsylvanis Leatherwing Beetle
Soapberry Bugs Subfamily Serinethinae
Yesterday we saw one, here a group feeding on a seed that fell off a tree.
Reference was made to www.soapberrybug.org and today I came across the flickr page of one of the researches involved (www.flickr.com/photos/soapberrybug/) where I saw similar photos, so this must be the Boisea fulcrata soapberry bugs...
NB: not captive. Seen on garden plant pot gravel.
I believe this bug with lovely markings and texture is genus Platycoris, perhaps bipunctatus. Commonly known as the toad stink bug.
This is a true bug, with piercing and sucking mouthparts.
Body length 10 mm.
