A friend is someone who knows you well enough to bring you a dead dragonfly to photograph. Thank you, Liz

Another pipistrelle shot, this one just about to catch something.

In the middle of this area Groene Weelde (green wealth) I stumbled upon a bug house, or insect hotel.

Really love them....

I just cannot get enough of these guys on the rare occasion I get one to pose for me.

So I finished these cute moths last night and woke up this morning to find the hoop attacked by cats. I'm hoping I can save this, I wanted to use this in an insect themed quitl.

I made this for the St. Paul Art Crawl but I almost want to keep it for myself!

Dasychira Pudibunda Caterpillar, gąsienica Szczotecznicy szarawki

Not great quality but I wanted to capture it as I'd never seen an insect like this before

Stick Insect

Complete Metamorphosis in Enthomology means simply that creature undergoes the metamorphosis through the pupating stage. Some of insects don't become pupae.

Temnothorax cf. nylanderi and Formica cunicularia with aphids

The 2 ant species usually don't bother eachother

Feeding on hemlock. I found a pair of these on the same plant. Papilio polyxenes, Papilionidae. Summer 2014, Central IL.
