On the left, my planned bug boy or bug fairy. A shy little crybaby, who's quite naive and kind.
On the right, my fairy girl, who's got quite the temper and will look out for him.
The picture was actually taken with some extension tubes and I forgot to set the right focal length from camera, so it's not 18mm, but something like 3x90mm ;)
Mirid bug (?) on a tree trunk at night. More creatures of the night: orionmystery.blogspot.com/2012/05/night-macro.html
My lovely old BugPuss, we had to have her put down today (18 June 2014). We found her 'floppy' in the garden and after carrying out tests, the vets believe she had ingested a a toxin (probably anti-freeze) which had caused neurological damage and acute kidney failure - She had a good innings anyway, but I'm deeply saddened as I was very attached to her! :(
See it Large... This decorative brown bug was about 3/4 inch long.
Thanks to Rebecca for pointing me in that direction, however, it is actually a Western Conifer Seed Bug ( Leptoglossus occidentalis)
The western conifer seedbug was first described in the western United States. This true bug of the family Coreidae feeds mainly on the seeds and developing cones of several species of conifers and their respective hybrids. This bug hasbeen expanding its range eastward and was first detected in Pennsylvania in July 1992. Today, its range extends across the northern United States into Canada. Recent records from Pennsylvania and several other areas of the northeastern United States suggest that interstate commerce has been a factor in extending the insect’s range.
The western conifer seed bug, which has been seen indoors in western North America, bothers people in homes, offices, and laboratories. In Pennsylvania and other parts of the northeastern United States, this leaf-footed bug becomes a nuisance when it enters homes in search of overwintering sites.
A very small bug on a very large flower... While heading off to pick up my Dad for breakfast I had to grab my camera to take this shot. It was a tiny bug with HUGH antennae sitting on this beautiful pink flower.

This is what I get when I try to load my tags in organizr. This is Firefox 1.0.6 on my Macintosh iBook PowerPC G4, OS X.3.9 with 1.25 Go DDR SDRAM
The same thing happens using Safari.
A browser bug or an organizr bug?
Not sure what these bug are, I found them on a bulrush in our pond, I have seen them the last year or so and found they abseil down a silken thread they anchor to the reed, it also helps to have a breeze this will then help carry them further away from were they hatched.
Ah, spring! The birds are singing, the flowers are blooming, and the bugs are spattering themselves across my face shield with reckless abandon.
I've tried to get this bug identified on Bowerbird, but so far it has been narrowed down to a coreid, from the tribe Amorbini (Coreinae). Apparently it bears similarities to a genus of Coreid called Kurrajongia, found in NSW and Queensland, first described in 1998.
On the Brisbane Insects pages the closest I can find is the Eucalyptus Tip-wilter bugs (Amorbus species): www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_coreidbugs/Amorbini.htm.
