our hidden camera caught this dead fly, and dead bee warming up to each other, and sharing some eskimo kisses together.
Not sure what these bug are, I found them on a bulrush in our pond, I have seen them the last year or so and found they abseil down a silken thread they anchor to the reed, it also helps to have a breeze this will then help carry them further away from were they hatched.

I did not expect to see these boatman bugs near Bullfinch.
In early November we camped overnight near the dry saltlake - Lake Deborah and set up our camp table with a LED lantern. Many insects came to visit.

BUG TUSSLE, TEXAS. Bug Tussle is at the junction of Farm Road 1550 and State Highway 34, ten miles south of Honey Grove and five miles north of Ladonia in southeastern Fannin County. The community was initially called Truss, after John Truss, who settled there. It was founded in the 1890s and had a post office in 1893-94. Later the town's name was changed to Bug Tussle. At least three explanations exist for this unusual name. The most popular is that the name commemorated an invasion of bugs that spoiled a church ice cream social. A variation on this anecdote suggests that the relatively isolated spot, long popular as a site of Sunday school picnics, offered little else for picnickers to do after they ate than watch the bugs tussle. A third story tells of an argument between two old-time residents who wanted to change the name of the town. Their attention was diverted by the spectacle of two tumblebugs fighting. "Look at those bugs tussle," one reportedly remarked, thus settling the argument and rechristening the town. More than seventy Bug Tussle highway signs have been stolen over the years, and for a time it was fashionable for couples to come there to be married, just so that they could say they had been wed in Bug Tussle. Bug Tussle reported only six residents by 1962, but experienced a brief renaissance when the David Graham Hallqv foundation took a fifteen-year lease on the downtown area in order to restore it. From 1966 to the mid-1980s the renovated town, sometimes called West Bug Tussle, had a population of thirty and capitalized on its unusual name by producing a number of souvenir items under the "Made in Bug Tussle, Texas" logo. In 1990 its population was reported as fifteen.
Travel bug released on Easter Sunday from Folsom Prison (for good behavior, ha, ha!) Travel bugs are small items that move from cache to cache in the Geocaching (.com) game.
this owl was in a small tent with the sun shining on it - difficult to photograph when you only use automatic lol
Bugs in the compost heap - kinda puts you off sticking your hands in it :)
This is however non mature compost. Only the second time I've seen those pale waxy looking detritus mites
Sadly, this is the only example of water life that I could find at what used to be the duck pond at Kirby Park. This is thanks to all of the neighbors (?) around the park who complained that ducks and geese are "dirty". Shame on them!
Yes, I am talking through clenched teeth at the moment!
Kirby Park is in Luzerne County in Pennsylvania in the US. Somehow, the map won't show it!
