With the temperature starting to rise (15-17°C (59-63°F), the Spring Flowers starting to bloom and some rain (about 18mm or 3/4 inch) over the past 10 days we are starting to see some insect life in the garden.

Or stink bug. I had no idea these stink bugs went through instar stages! That's the cool thing about photography... it gets you to looking closer at the world around you and you find out interesting things! I think this bug is maybe 4th or 5th instar. These are the guys that put an end to my squash, tomatoes and cucumbers for the year. I don't know whether to be grateful to the little pests or dislike them more than I already do! LOL Have a wonderful day everyone!
Overblown bug
Don't worry it's just a ventilation unit.

Caught this Dragonfly over a fast moving stream.
Occasionally it would fly down for a bug and return to this spot.

This looks like some sort of beetle similar to a lady bug, but I can't ID it. It was very tiny, and is crawling along the leaf stem on a Plumeria tree.

Color patterns are connected to their living quarters: generalists that live pretty much anywhere have fairly simple patterns of two strikingly different colors that they wear year round. Others that live in specific habitats have more complex coloration, and some can change color throughout the year. Specialist ladybugs use a camouflage coloration to match the vegetation when they're in hibernation and develop the characteristic bright colors to warn off predators during their mating season.
Have a happy day/evening
I'm not sure what kind of plant this is. And I'm not sure what kind of bugs these were. But I really like the colors in juxtaposition and the swarming of the little insects on this small leaves.
