The larger bug here was attacking the smaller shieldbug (hawthorn nymph?) It was eventually dragged down the crack in the wood at the top of the picture, whilst the birch shieldbug turned round and watched. The same type of bug appeared to attack the birch shieldbug (see previous post).

I gotta say, I'm not too fond of my new room mate this year.

I was in the kitchen when I heard the girl cry out from the laundry room. "A bug!" she wailed. "Mommy, get rid of it! But, wait... before you get rid of it, will you take a picture first?" Oh, that's my girl!

I decided to try out a lens that my aunt and uncle got me, when I noticed that it didn't fit on my camera! Although I was disappointed I was determined to get an okay macro shot. So I went outside, shot many photos of flowers, leaves, and grass. This shot was my favourite because it reminds me of being a little kid & wondering what being a bug is like. The lighting in this shot was a blessing! Although blurred around the edges, that's how I wanted the shot to look. It adds a special element!

I was checking on my bell pepper plants this evening and found this green caterpillar and this stink bug attached. I don't know if those eggs are the stink bug's or not, they don't look like other pictures I've seen. It was a very strange sight.

Chinch bugs, genus Blissus, are notorious pests, but this is only the second or third one I've ever seen. They are tiny, though. Parkville, Missouri, USA, May 14, 2023.

Chieka breaks up the fun.

La Garde-Adhémar, July 2009

It's a bug on a flower. Not much more to say except that I like how it turned out.

I am tired of finding bugs in my ivy geraniums. Unless, of course, the bugs are eating the worms that like to eat the plants. Then they're A-OK with me! ;)

Bug Walking Around...

Probably one of the coolest coloured bug

To raise awareness, huge photos of bugs, insects, etc., lined this street. Photos from wandering around the gay village of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, in August 2010.
