listen this old song :George Jones - Love Bug
Well, I was ruling the roost, had all the chicks to myself.
And suddenly it happened, that funny little feeling I felt.
Well, I tried to outrun it, but it finally caught up with me.
Tell me how can I run from something that I can′t see?
Chorus:
Oh, that little bitty teeny weeny thing they call the lovebug.
Nobody's ever seen it, but it′s got the whole world shook up.
It all started with a little bitty kiss and a hug.
It's a little bitty teeny weeny thing they call the lovebug.
Well, I always thought that I had me a pretty good style,
But I lost that race by a good old country mile.
Yeah, I was walking all around
With my head held way up high,
And it fooled me, hit me, really took me by surprise..............
What a poser!

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!
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.
Got my first macro lens tonight :) With the low light conditions and just freehand made it rather difficult to keep in focus.
Ambush Bug (Phymata ) found in central WI.
Phymata Ambush Bugs are sit-and-wait predators that are well camouflaged on flower heads. When an insect comes within reach, they are quick to grab it with their massive forelegs. Despite their diminutive size they are seemingly fearless about grabbing bees and other large prey.
