I think both I and the bug were trying to enjoy this bit of nice weather while it lasts. 270/365.

Yay!

A little bit of a bug of lace.

Braving Baja: 1000 Miles to Glory

1960 Volkswagen

The winningest vehicle in Baja history, the Bilstein Bug was built and co-driven by Doug and Don Robertson. It won more than 30 races and was named SCORE's overall points champion in 1977. The Volkswagen Beetle became a popular vehicle to modify for desert racing because it was affordable, relatively simple to modify, and offered unusually good traction because of ot's rear-engine configuration.

Momento alquanto insolito.. ;)

The silverfish here are more mottled and furry than silvery, but they are cuter than average.

n Mexico some things seem to live forever, like old VW bugs. Also, on the walls, the butterflies never die... From my morning run. A long one. Today a worker I past fist bumped me. Out of the blue. ✌️

And it's squirting deadly poison!

Battle Unit of Gorillawer-- These are the prototypes of my new mini bots used to find and destroy. Same basic frame, different missions, coluor and weapons.

01: Its mission is to destroy. It can find any alive target with infrared scanner and reduce it to ash with a flamethrower.

Bug-gy

This is how it looks like close up.

Two bugs on a walnut tree leaf. What can they be?

The tree's in the mountains of Gran Canaria, in case that helps.

Another tree nearby had some larvae but my guess is they're not related. But then I'm a bug-ignoramus :)

Update: seems to be vine weevil, Otiorhynchus sulcatus

VW 57 Bug Deluxe

At the "Rolling Sculpture" car show, I always gravitate towards the vintage VWs. The 60s style bugs with the headlight covers and double bumpers are such classics.

Been slowing down on shooting & scanning lately, sorry. Summertime, house-repair distractions, etc...

Bed bugs are a big problem around the world. They multiply quickly and can be transferred from one place to the other in cloths and belonging of guests. They are particularly common in hotels and other places such as trains and buses. Bed bugs can then easily hitch a ride on your clothes and reach your home. From there they can multiply quickly. Therefore, bed bugs control should be started at an early stage when the problem first surfaces. Black Horse Pest Control provides bed bugs control services in Dubai and UAE.

Bug is Goat's new 'pet.' Bug doesn't talk, but she certainly loves to follow Goat around everywhere!

This was a birthday cake for a little girl who loved bugs!

Can't believe I'd never posted this. Andy & I were leaving the movie theater at Sawgrass Mills and there were THOUSANDS of these bugs all over the place. Mostly crushed by feet and cars.

These red bugs seem to be everywhere lately.

Not sure what this little guy is called, but as kids, we always called them "stink bugs".
