Fireflies are familiar, but few realize that these insects are actually beetles, nocturnal members of the family Lampyridae. Most fireflies are winged, which distinguishes them from other luminescent insects of the same family, commonly known as glowworms.

This guy was bugging for the other side, not willing to pose. Not sure on id, maybe an aphid and responsible for the hole in the foreground. Have a great day and don't let the little stuff bug you.
This little guy sat outside the house today when we left to go shopping, and still hung out, after we got back. Almost looks like he is smiling for the camera.

Brokenbacked bug, possibly Taylorilygus apicalis a species of Miridae (Hemiptera Heteroptera) on Autumn Scrub Daisy, Olearia paucidentata. Talbot Road Reserve, Swan View, Western Australia, May 2012.
The Cotton Catchment Communities CRC describes the Brokenbacked bug as 4-5mm, light green in colour with brown flecks on the inner wings. The outer wings are predominantly brown. Wing tips are bent down at 45° giving the 'broken-back' appearance.
And this is a real bug, an entomologists bug! It appears to be the Pale Cotton Stainer, Dysdercus sidae. As it is sitting on a leaf of a plant in the Malvaceae which is also a cotton relative perhaps that is appropriate.
These bugs are annoying my hibiscus plants a lot and cause mutant growth. Along with the shield bugs they cause many problems. There are over 330 000 insects in Australia and it is hard to identify them but I will try. This one along with shield beetles can hurt when you pick them up. Must be some sort of sting.

This little bug, I had as a wee giftie in my pocket for a very special little man named, "Theodore". My nephew. My late sister's grandson, he is aged 3 years old.
I had lots of fun with little Theo. We called the bug "Larry". I told little Theo that Larry had the hiccups when he was in my pocket while driving over. In fact, Larry sings too. He can dance, if you shake him he has seeds inside his little tummy, he makes gentle swishing sounds!
It made both Theo and I laugh and I provided countless stories with happy little Larry!
Theo gently tucked him away in his pant pocket, "which I called his sleeping pocket". I think Larry was snoring too! At least that is what I told Theo.
When I left, I reminded Theo to make sure Larry sat on his night side table to bid him "Sweet Dreams". I do hope he didn't go through the washing machine.
Gave a workshop this weekend through Newspace Center for Photography, called Spooky Shootout, and spent the day on Saturday at the Bybee House on Sauvie Island.
The capsid (mirid) bug Polymerus unifasciatus at the Warburg Reserve, Oxfordshire, England.
There are a myriad of mirids (couldn't resist that!) — about 6,000 known species, I think — but thankfully this one's markings are quite distinctive.

a paintiing I did at school. it's about 80x100 cm. I'm working on a bug-series. don't ask why, it was more out of fun than any serious reason. I know I'm not the best painter but it's such relaxing work compared to everything else I have to work on these days.
next week my class is gonna' have another exhibition with all of our paintings being shown! :)
