Folded in 2007, design by Brian Chan. 19" square tracing paper, ~9 hours to fold! First try. Yeah, I know it's not perfect but maybe I'll try again latter.
So "Lilly" the Ladybird decided to join me on my walk home. My little girl was thrilled, and touch great care of her. I am surprised she didn't scream as some do with insects. Once she had held her for a while and had a little chat with her. She put her on our back lawn and stated "Mummy that is where she lives with her Ladybird family, did you not know that?!" Bless her!

Photochallenge.org's 2009 daily challenge #78, Insect. Jeremy and Trevor you are killing me. Give me another month or two and we would be crawling with insects. But right now it's still too cold. My daughter and I found this guy in our yard last summer and he's been living on our fireplace mantle ever since.
It believe this is just the exoskeleton of a dragonfly. I took it down to my lightbox and grabbed a few sticks from the back yard to create this image. The special effects are courtesy of Tiffen Dfx's X-Ray Filter. (a favorite of my daughter's)
La chrysomèle est dédaignée des prédateurs, et notamment des oiseaux insectivores, sans doute en raison de l'âcreté de son goût, et d'une trop forte saveur issue des plantes aromatiques ingérées.
En l'absence d'une régulation naturelle suffisante, l'insecte peut évidemment proliférer au-delà du raisonnable.
Spreadwing damselflies get their name from the distinctive way they hold their wings while perched. I didn't see any of these in 2012, but I had a spot in 2011 where I could find them fairly regularly. Lestes rectangularis, Lestidae. Summer 2011, Central IL.
