Nothing new here. I seem to photograph these guys a lot. Well not a lot , just twice while I was in hanimadhoo. Maybe because they are the only ones available for close ups. It was a bad day. Overcast sky, so having nothing else to do and I needed to test out the macro lens, this became the end result. Mind you the camera nearly fell off the tripod cos the lens is too heavy, for the tripod.

I was helping my grandma in her garden, and this little guy landed on her arm. I think it might of peed on her unless that is something else!

Bug orgy bush. Stopped to check out where the sweet perfume on the wind was coming from and found it coming from this bush. Then I noticed that it was covered with bugs. Then I noticed that all of the bugs were getting down... guess the scent is like and aphrodisiac to them.
I found this strange looking bug this morning in the kitchen. So before letting it free, the camera came out. He was a grippy little bugger!
kinda friends. still not loving each other, but getting along better.
i gave them a bit of cat nip, which had Banjo lazing about in a new way and bug rolling around fighting his own tail...
A couple of weeks ago we spotted this in our garden. After some examination it appears to be the 'molted skin' of an insect. Here's what was inside. View large to be even more creeped out.
Closeup of the top. On the left - dodgy joint in the left half. This has been disturbed while the solder was still melted. No way it melted on the car, this would take around 350 deg C! Again on the left, the right half has just fallen off the radiator indicating a poor joint. The only bit holding it was about 10 degrees of the circle, nearest to the camera. This is the small tag showing at the bottom of the right hand part.
Can anyone help me identify this? It is definitely an insect of some sort, I watched it crawl along the leaf!
This bug is about 6 inches long. New to the south, I did a double-take the first time I saw one. I eventually motivated this one to move. It dropped to the ground, and I saw that those are long antennae between the extended front legs at upper right, extending from the head, near the center of this photo. Not at all photogenic -- but a curiosity. West Georgia.
Here's a possibly better shot that includes enlarged view of the head area.
This uninvited guest has been showing up in my kitchen. Today, the place will be fumigated and hopefully there will be no more bugs.
I used an additional 2x lens while shooting these macros. This tall coarse grass is the kind that I believe my grandmother used to call "johnson grass." The bug--I don't know. Maybe a "shield bug" variety.
And somebody came and took my hand
And I finally had to go
But Megan I just want you to know
That I waited as long as I could
I'm butter on a summer day when she's around.
