Ferocious beast with warts and spines making it less likely to be eaten. They moult four times and then pupate before emerging as an adult ladybird.
This tiny insect has antennae longer than its body. It is perched on the small bloom of clover to give you an idea of the actual size. It was near dark when taken so I used the flash and bumped the ISO.
~~Chez certains insectes, les œufs et les larves doivent être déposés précisément sur leurs ressources alimentaires. La femelle est donc très sélective lors de la ponte.
Chez certaines, elles pondent les œufs de manière aléatoire sur le substrat. Chez d'autres, Elles les déposent en masse sur le feuillage ou les posent individuellement sur le plant. D'autres pondent à l'intérieur des racines, des tiges et à travers des troncs d'arbres à l'aide d'un organe spécialisé appelé ovipositeur.
Les mantes, les blattes et certains orthoptères pondent leurs œufs en masse dans une capsule protectrice appelée oothèque. Cette mousse de protéines forme une carapace solide assurant une protection contre d'éventuels prédateurs.

Insects possess segmented bodies supported by an exoskeleton, a hard outer covering made mostly of chitin. The segments of the body are organized into three distinctive but interconnected units, or tagmata; a head, a thorax, and an abdomen. The head supports a pair of sensory antennae, a pair of compound eyes, one to three simple eyes ("ocelli") and three sets of variously modified appendages that form the mouthparts. The thorax has six segmented legs (one pair each for the prothorax, mesothorax and the metathorax segments making up the thorax) and two or four wings (if present in the species). The abdomen (made up of eleven segments some of which may be reduced or fused) has most of the digestive, respiratory, excretory and reproductive internal structures.

Happy weekend!
Thank you very much for your visit, it is most appreciated.
One of my personal challenges this year has to been to try and improve on my insect flight images. This one was taken in my garden and I was hoping that I have captured the wing movement.

I am no specialist on insects so I don't know which spider and which fly. The fly didn't make it though
A vida é valor absoluto. Não existe vida menor ou maior, inferior ou superior. Engana-se quem mata ou subjuga um animal por julgá-lo um ser inferior. Diante da consciência que abriga a essência da vida, o crime é o mesmo.
(Olympia Salete)
This strange looking insect is neither a scorpion or a fly and is completely harmless. It scavenges around in the undergrowth looking for dead insects to feed on. Seen in Dunwich, Suffolk.
Not sure what kind of bee this is, so I will just call it a Honeybee gathering pollen on the flower of a Pickerelweed in the wetlands of Florida.
