Possibly a Birch shield bug.
Looking for bugs and beetles in the garden recently.
What's the difference between beetles and bugs?
Bugs suck. No really, they do. Unlike beetles with their biting jaws, bugs (which are their own biological group - or order - of insect called Hemiptera) have piercing, beak-like mouthparts for extracting the juices from plants and other invertebrates.

Wheel Bug found in the United States. It is one of the largest terrestrial true bugs in North America, reaching up to 1.5 inches (38 mm) in length in its adult stage. Nymphs do not yet have the wheel-shaped structure. Body length of the nymph in the photo approximately 2.5 cm.
NB: not captive. Seen on garden plant pot gravel.
I believe this bug with lovely markings and texture is genus Platycoris, perhaps bipunctatus. Commonly known as the toad stink bug.
This is a true bug, with piercing and sucking mouthparts.
Body length 10 mm.

Actually called the Portland Headwater Light, but knows as the Bug Light for its small size. Built in 1875 in Portland Maine.
A celebration of the colour green.
These shield bugs feed on solanaceous plants especially the genus Solanum, which includes potatoes, tomatoes and wild tobacco.

Clarity not so great, but this bug was above my head and I had to hold my camera at arm's length to get a shot. It was the prettiest blue all over!
Unable to find an exact ID for this dragonfly...there were zillions of blue ones, but none that had the orange spot or stripes on its wings. I think it might actually be a damselfly.
