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.
My 8yo son asked me to take this photo. He wanted to see what this bug looked like in macro. He thinks it's a dragonfly larva. I'm clueless. It looks like an alien creature to me.

Was hoping to go out tonight and shoot some long exposures but with the constant rain, I'll leave it for another day. Another bug shot from testing out the Raynox, giving me the inspiration at looking at maybe buying a Nikon 105mm 2.8 VR or Tamron 180mm F3 macro lens, best I start saving for one :)

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.

I've tried to get this bug identified on Bowerbird, but so far it has been narrowed down to a coreid, from the tribe Amorbini (Coreinae). Apparently it bears similarities to a genus of Coreid called Kurrajongia, found in NSW and Queensland, first described in 1998.
On the Brisbane Insects pages the closest I can find is the Eucalyptus Tip-wilter bugs (Amorbus species): www.brisbaneinsects.com/brisbane_coreidbugs/Amorbini.htm.
This is one in a series of Giant scare bugs I made to frighten the real bugs that bother my garden. It is made entirely from garden and recycled materials. There are step by step pictures of building the armature on my blog. The veins in the wings are clothesline rope paper mache'd over, colored with purple, blue, and green stain, spray painted black and finally coated with varnish.

bug butt, bud.
our ignorant, bigoted mayor has once again shown that he has nothing but contempt for diversity and yet is too much of a chickenshit coward to just come out and say so. fuck him and everyone who voted for him. conservatives are all filth.
maybe he's still bitter and pouting because he isn't getting his way, yet again.
