Dindymus versicolor, or as it is more commonly known, the Harlequin bug, is currently in plague proportions and enjoying sucking the sap from the native hibiscus (Alogyne huegelii) which is flowering profusely at the moment. In these photos of mating couples the female is on the left and is the one feeding on the sap of the plant.

The other day, my husband had to break up a fight at his school. One kid bet another kid $5 that he wouldn't eat one of these bugs. He didn't pay up when the kid ate one. Freshman Fear Factor.
OK, I give up! This MSH kicked my ass. There are no scarabs to be found here. No Egyptian museums, or jewelry stores ... or anywhere else I can think of to look, except for the picture in the dictionary and I'm not going to do that. So here you go - it's a bug anyway. Sorry, pedants! :)
October MSH #11: scarab
I was trying to get a good macro shot of this flower and these two tiny bugs showed up in my viewfinder. I couldn't resist trying to see if this lens could capture them with good details. I think this is an amazing lens! Still much to learn though but the learning is fun. I used a tripod with this shot but forgot to turn the IS off. So many things to remember and be sure to check. Hmmmm, will this ever become second nature?

The green shield bug (Palomena prasina) is a shield bug of the family Pentatomidae. This shield bug is a medium-green colour above without any substantial markings. This is a very common shield bug in Britain, being found in many habitats, including gardens.
De groene stinkwants (Palomena prasina), ook wel groene schildwants of groene wants, is een insect uit de onderorde wantsen en de familie schildwantsen (Pentatomidae).
De wants dankt het eerste deel van zijn naam aan de groene kleur, alleen de punten van de vleugels aan de achterzijde van het lichaam zijn bruin. Vlak voor de winterslaap kleurt de wants echter geheel bruin om in de lente weer groen te worden. Het tweede deel van de naam, stinkwants, slaat op de smerig ruikende substantie die uit klieren aan de zijkant van het borststuk worden afgescheiden ter verdediging. De wants is algemeen in grote delen van Europa en komt ook in België en Nederland algemeen voor en kan plaatselijk erg talrijk zijn.
These Lady Bugs are dining on yellow Milkweed Aphids in my flower bed. Yesterday I released 2,000 Lady Bugs to keep them in control. I have Tropical Milkweed, Butterfly Weed and Swamp Milkweed planted as host plants for Monarch butterflies. I really need to get a macro lens.

I found this small bug on the back bumper of my car. I've never seen this type before. It's a bit bigger than a ladybug.
Assassin Bug Pristhesancus plagipennis, it hides in amongst flowers and leaves to ambush prey. It grabs with the long front legs, and, having impaled the victim, pumps digestive enzymes into it and then sucks it up as liquid!! Tiny flies also took advantage! In a larger size these dudes would be the stuff of nightmares!
