I saw one of the cats playing with something on the lawn and when I went to have it look this is what it had. I rescued it but had no idea what it was. However, I have now discovered that it is a May bug or Cockchafer. That's the new thing learnt this week then!
Spotted this "Skinnbagge" while shooting the Art Promenade. It is the official landscape bug of Södermanland, and as we are in Södermanland, it was very appropriate of the bug to pose for me.
Just a bug on a lily. There is no alteration to the original image other than cropping.

I'm spending this week developing my professional web site (finally!), so I'm going to infill with some of the really groovy bug shots that I got on the weekend with my old friend LP.
I caught the photo of this beetle at Victoria's Bug Zoo on Jan 5th. They don't allow tripods, so I had to work hard to capture this shot handheld. Moving bugs, flare off glass enclosures, depth of field, and camera shake were my biggest challenges.
Very groovy viewed large.
Taken handheld with my Nikon D600 for 1/60th of a second at f/3.3, ISO 2000 with my Nikkor 105mm f/2.8 VR macro lens, using on-camera flash.
Harmostes Reflexulus (the green and red bug, which is a scentless plant bug) and a black and orange False Milkweed Bug. The proboscis is clearly visible extending down from the mouth on the plant bug.
My mom and I went to this semi-annual plant sale at her FAVORITE greenhouse (I swear, I get drug there every time I'm home), and I saw this CRAZY looking fly. It looked like it was some bee-fly-hybrid.

Here you can see the eggs & babies that have just hatched. These things multiple like you wouldn't believe. The only way to really get rid of them is to take them off by hand and kill them. What a pain!
Finally outside the height of spring! So I thought I'm gonna show my bugs brooches that I made 2 years ago :) They're handmade painted.

A large, spectacular shield bug. The spots in the middle of its back are iridescent green from certain angles.
It may belong to Pentatomidae or Tessaratomidae.
