Bug on a marigold

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

Spotted by David (dsmphoto) on a recent photo outing, this guy has us completely stumped. I.D. anyone? Lacey? Bueller? (Aw, c'mon, view large, you know you really want to!)

We have several winners of the "i.d. this alien monster bug" contest -- thanks all for identifying this as a Wheel Bug, a darling little creature from the Assassin bug family. Yikes!

Didn't see much life in a hot midday hike at Charro Ranch Park, just south of Dripping Springs TX. The only flowers were "snow on the mountain", pretty white flowers with kind of a bad reputation. One of them was hosting this bug...

1966 Volkswagen Bug - NSRA Rocky Mountain Nationals Cars Show, Pueblo, CO.

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.....

Ambush bugs are predators of other insects and occasionally spiders. They lie in wait on plants and hunt by ambush, capturing prey that comes within range and injecting paralyzing saliva through their piercing-sucking mouth parts.

We had some nice sunshine today so I took the camera out into the garden to see what I could find. Didn't notice the little bug on the rosemary until I saw it on the screen.

HMBT and 1/100

They didn't seem to mind each other's presence. In fact, the bee worked around theâ¦Bug.
