I think this is one of those tongue twisters you have to say three times.

(Anacamptis coriophora) / poloskaszagú kosbor

I do not know what it is but I call it a Green Bug. It took me ages to think of that.

The bull is up unable to stand the constant biting and buzzing of the bugs any longer. He soon rolled in his dusty wallow again to help fend them off. But this only does so for a short time. Danged bugs.....

Something a little different.. This was made with a new Action from PanosFX.. He does very nice Actions and at a reasonable price too...

Another one - this time, nestled against the wall on the doorbell...

Bugs often gets into this pose where he is miaowing in a soft way and looking directly at me. This conveys to me that he wants my attention.

Mirid Bug (Deraeocoris ruber)

Yeah, couldn't see but glimpses of the eclipse due to intermittent cloud cover, but we did see this enormous bug. And I got close enough to shoot it. I'm still shocked by that particular detail. ;)

I am not sure what type of bug this is, but he was cool looking.

On it's Milkweed home :)

A Dock Bug (Coreus marginatus) on a cluster of blackberries!

Of the 10 British species of Squashbug the Dock Bug (Coreus marginatus) is the commonest and largest species likely to be found in the southern half of the UK. This is an excellent time of year to find them as they feed in the sunshine on ripening blackberrries and other fruits and seeds in preperation for hibernation.

Sunstar, Thistle, Bug, what more can you ask from a morning shoot?

my father's shoot

Does anyone out there know the name of this bug?

Thank you joeyjoe1 for the name "Colorado Potato Beetle"

Shield Bug sunning itself on a leaf

This Shield Bug was on my Garlic. It would pause occasionally and let me take a few photos.

Tech Specs: Canon 80D (F11, 1/250, ISO 100) + a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens (2x) + a diffused MT-26EX-RT (E-TTL metering, -1/3 FEC). This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held. I used an artificial flower to keep the background from being black.

Dandelions are covered in insect life at the moment. This tiny bug is shot handheld at 5* magnification as it feeds on pollen. Hay fever season has arrived.
