The larger bug here was attacking the smaller shieldbug (hawthorn nymph?) It was eventually dragged down the crack in the wood at the top of the picture, whilst the birch shieldbug turned round and watched. The same type of bug appeared to attack the birch shieldbug (see previous post).
I was in the kitchen when I heard the girl cry out from the laundry room. "A bug!" she wailed. "Mommy, get rid of it! But, wait... before you get rid of it, will you take a picture first?" Oh, that's my girl!

This bug just fell onto my desk right next to the keyboard. Paralyzed for a few minutes it was an easy target.
