I made this little fella last night. I fell in love immediately <3
The popular yard bugs are eating all your flowers and cuddles in your grass :)
Made Of Polymer Clay, Fimo Soft.
He is about 7 cm tall
Some sort of Leaf-footed Bug, most likely Acanthocephala terminalis.
I just noticed that the color on his antennae exactly match the color of the anthers on the flowers.
I was finally able to identify the shrub as Rhododendron periclymenoides - a.k.a. Pink Azalea or "Pinkster".
I was getting ready to make dinner and found this special monster sitting in the corner by the recycling bin. S/he twitched his/her antennae at me a few times, but seemed mostly dead.
I thought maybe it was a dead-ish roach. The weird part is I haven't seen them running around and I keep the place reasonably clean.
Oh, did I mention that the head and abdomen were about an inch long? This was a big bug.
I guess my apartment is the apartment of infestations. A previous tenant told me she got infested with slugs when she lived in my apartment. I had a few fairly major ant invasions already in the last 4 months.
Apparantly this is a "potato bug" (or Jerusalem cricket) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerusalem_cricket . I thought potato bugs were the tiny roly-poly things that live under logs and rocks (maybe like en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodlouse , but the ones I've seen were more dark and they sorta curl up into little balls).
I had my bug for almost 12 years but the time came when, because of it drinking petrol like it was going out of fashion, we had to sell it. :( last saturday was such a sad day, I will miss it, but it still has a little place in my heart.
a shy bug - didn't show me its face. all I got was it's back. and for your information, the bug's native was Pondichery. :P
This bug was huge and has a bizarre story behind it. Ask us sometime. (A hint: it came from B's place of work. Ahem.)
Heavy Alien Transport - The Bug. My sixth and last submission to Lugpols BTT 2007. Challenge 24 - Build a transport vehicle powered by alien technology.
Had a hard time focusing this one....later i realised that i had to set the metering to spot, i changed the metering to spot and it was good. The Focus is still not perfect but it is acceptable....
I took many of this one....but i liked this image since the little bug is also there...
Taken near the trees in inguraidhoo football ground...
