Anyone know what the heck this bug is?
It was alive and on the windshield of my car.
Are we being invaded?

What bug is this? In swedish it's called Bärfis (berry fart). Don't know why...maybe it farts on berries???
Today I've been on a bug safari in a short space of hedgerow being my house. So much to see if you look. So many quick moving spiders, and I felt compelled to tuck my jeans into my socks, just in case.
Onde moro este tipo de gafanhoto é chamado de "esperança". Fotografado no portão de minha casa, com uma Fujifilm Finepix HS10, Flash pop-up da própria câmera sem difusor, com modo macro ativado. Adoro fotos de insetos, a riqueza e multiplicidade de texturas é impressionante!

Bugs is about as handsome as they get. He looks like he's trying to figure out how to get Miss Bunny to warm up to him.
Spittle bugs at home. Spittle bug nymphs hide in a mass of froth that is a liquid secretion they turn into froth by moving or pumping their bodies. Once the bubbles are formed. they use their back legs to cover themselves with the froth.
The spittle serves multiple purposes. It shields them from predators, insulates them from temperature extremes and prevents dehydration.
These bugs that look like ladybugs but are much meaner were swarming everywhere, meaning our trip was cut short.

I presume one of the large family of shield bugs by it's shape.
Not a great image but that was the best I could do in the circumstances.
This is a True Katydid, Pterophylla camellifolia. I'm probably too picky, but the true katydid posted is actually a MALE. Males of some katydids have elaborate subgenital plates that resemble a female's ovipositor, so it is really easy to make that mistake. The stridulatory area on the front wings (the brown triangle at the top of the insect in the nice photo) confirms that it is a male. Females do not have modifications of the front wings. Just keepin' you on your toes
Another bug shot from the other day which I had forgotten about! Not sure what it is, some sort of shield bug I think. The sun was shining brightly and was reflecting off his back making him look multicoloured! Thanks to Lady BH for the ID! This one is an early instar.
Some bug shots from a visit to highdown gardens Worthing. First time I've knowingly seen a robber fly. I just do not get them in my garden. Unfortunately taken in strong natural light
This funky bug, which my brother says is a dobson fly, I believe, was there to greet us, clinging to the outside of a screen in the cabin's living room.

This is a combination of images altered with Paint Shop Pro and Photoshop. I'm working on first choosing a shape, then getting it, (the black in this image for example), to move as a floating object. Then I move it over a larger image until I find a position, size, and rotation, so that the, (bug image in this example), seems most pleasing. Then I merge flat, or rastorize, to fuse the 2 layers.
