Under the severe lockdown conditions, even the bugs weren't found. Finally I could capture only these bugs on the board for Flickr Friday

One of the few insects that feeds on milkweed. My tropical milkweed is currently hosting them along with yellow aphids and Monarch caterpillars. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
lady bug or bug luv????? Many friends told me love is in the air, but I found luv bugs in the air instead.
One thing I found out about lady bugs is the patterns are actually formed in heart shape. For this one, I can actually count 8!!!!
No wonder lady bugs have been called the luv bugs. I totally agree.

Stilt Bug, Metatropis rufescens, (Berytidae family).
Length 9-11 mm.
This large and unmistakeable orange-brown Stilt Bug is a woodland species, feeding on the leaves of Enchanter's Nightshade, Circaea lutetiana, an indicator of ancient woodland. They feed predominantly on the reproductive organs of the plants.
Despite its name, Enchanter’s Nightshade is unrelated to other Nightshades. It actually belongs to the willowherb family and is found in sun-dappled woodland, flowering between June and September.
This Stilt Bug is found throughout much of southern Britain including Wales, although absent from Ireland. It occurs in shady, mostly moist habitats in deciduous forests.
Overwintering occurs as an imago, (the final and fully developed adult stage), under loose bark or dry ground litter. Mating occurs in May and the females lay their eggs individually in June and July on the stems and leaves of Enchanter's Nightshade. From August, sometimes also in July, the emergent new generation occurs, and nymphs can be found until September.
This little Boxelder bug is looking for a warmer place to spend the winter, so they try to crawl into a crevice somewhere to chill. I love the face on it's back. I'm sure it's a way of warding off predators.
also 16.52 for this week's theme: 'a bug's life' (or in this case: two bugs lives).
went out on my balcony to find a bug and was happy to find these two ;)
both pictures taken on apr 21.
Wonder why sometimes the bugs on the plants are upside down. Another life mystery. ;-) Oh and these flowers are Sweet Alyssum from my yard. They smell REALLY sweet and are teeny tiny.

Shield bug on sea holly - the hot summer seems to have accelerated the dragonfly season - there were vey few on the wing yesterday and we were reduced to taking pictures of shield bugs which love to hide in the (now dry) sea holly flower heads
While exploring the swamp I found my first giant water bug in some open water. This one is a nymph, soft & translucent. Found 2 interesting facts when I researched them. They can hide with heads in the water and butt up due to a breathing tube at the end of their abdomen. And females attach the eggs to the male's back so that he carries the babies until they hatch. They are predators & eat water insects as well as snails, small fish, and both tadpoles & adults frogs & toads.

I've been in Coventry visiting my parents for the weekend. Dad brought a conifer into the house to decorate as a Christmas tree - and a couple of juniper shield bugs came in with it :-) I haven't seen these in my garden, so a new photographic record from the weekend.
Handheld, natural light.
(NB. My photos-of-the-day were of family members so I've not made them visible for public viewing)
