These crazy looking bugs were covering all the bushes along the beach (in Colloroy Beach, Australia). I thought they were cool, but they're probably just glorified beetles...hehe

LOOKS LIKE IT HAS ARMOUR ON....

possibly Troilus luridus but not sure, seems to match that in the book

Among the dock leaves there were dozens of Dock Bugs about today, mostly in pairs. I watched a lot of shaking and twitching and rubbing antenna and even more fighting and squabbling. Eventually I gave up hoping to get a photo of them mating but then a yard further down the path I found these two! Now I am looking for eggs. Last year I found nymphs of all stages so just need eggs to complete the set. www.flickr.com/photos/photospool/7776879410/

Found inside medicine cabinet, a kind of stink bug seeking shelter from the upcoming winter. ( I think.)

Ever been mooned by a bug? You have now.

A jewel beetle that I saw during our Monteverde hike. You can almost see me in the reflection!

Bugs, Bugs and Bugs @ Admiralty Park

These bugs are annoying my hibiscus plants a lot and cause mutant growth. The shield bugs especially cause most of the problems. There are over 330 000 insects in Australia and it is hard to identify them but I will try for an exact name.

A big bug demonstration at the zoo.

I've never seen a bug like this before - his head looked like a little, bright red, round pinhead, and he had four tiny things on his back that looked like pom poms, lots of legs, pipe cleaner-like feeler things in the front and back, and little spiky hairs all over. He was crawling on a box of sparklers on my porch at our fourth of July cookout.

edit: according to mscaprikell, he is an Orgyia leucostigma, or White-marked Tussock Moth caterpillar.

The only part my daughter ate was the chocolate. Typical.

This little bug is on one of the squash leaves in the garden. Not sure what it is. Mt Juliet, Tn.

apparently these guys cause contact dermatitis if you touch them.

Roaming bug stand. Attatched to a bicycle.

This is one of the coolest bugs I've ever seen. I've since learned that this buzz-saw-backed arthropod is known as a wheel bug, and it's probably a good thing I didn't try to handle him. Apparently his bite is quite painful and can take months to fully heal.

Isn't learning fun?

Bugs. Everywhere.

Her bug bites were obtained on a different day. Poor baby. :(

Hyoooj moth on the certificates board overnight. The balcony is painted white, and has night lights, so the morning brings a menagerie. This one's prettier than the stag beetles, which make good footballs.

black and orange Halloween bug

In this room the dance floor, smoothie stock cellar, smoothie barrel 1 and 2 should be equiped because it says they are and that is how it was before the bug. They do not show so this is the best I could do.
