(114/366) I haven't got a bug butt photo for today but I have got a Bug Box. Like we really need more things to pack when we do eventually move but I couldn't resist buying this for just €4.99 from Lidl.
Shield/Stinkbug nymphs on a tree trunk, Madagascar. I think this would make a good bug-themed jigsaw puzzle :)
The Volkswagen Bug is rarely seen these days. When I was young you could hardly go anywhere and not see one.
Life in the undergrowth. you just have to look. Preferably with some optical aid...
Canon 5D and EF 50mm f/1.8 with extension tube.
More insects seen before noon along this track through pristine forest.
Good to get a mating pair. Again not very colourful.
A few interesting insects I have photographed when I couldn't find much else stirring.
1)Helmeted Squash Bug
2)Oleander Aphids
3)Pyrota lineata - a type of blister beetle.
4)Ascra bifida - a type of stinkbug
This nice bug was found by my cousin. I captured this image in the Great Nemunas Loops regional park near the Nemunas river. The bug seemed very interesting for me because of black spot on its body, it looks like a money-box. ;)
Please have a view of full size... Thanks :)
Or should that be B B B B B B B B Bond Bug (s)?
Back in the early 1980s a friend of mine who was about 6 foot 3 and built like a brick ****house had one of these.
Now I’m speechless
Over the edge and just breathless
I never thought that I’d catch this
Love bug again
Hopeless head over heels in the moment
I never thought that I’d get hit
With this love bug again ♥ ,.

This bug's eyes are behind the long antennae, but it kind of looks like it has a sorrowful 'face' looking down between the front legs
This pile of rotting logs, covered in moss makes for a luxury bug hotel. Spotted in Bayhurst Wood on my walk with Ross this morning.
Hands belong to daughter's bf....they saw the stick bug on the wall of a building and brought it over because "gangie wants to see it" granddaughter said....
It was the creepiest thing ever! BF tried to put it on me, I had to threaten him. View large if you have a minute.
Did you know?? .... there are over 3,000 species of stick bugs in the world and they can be almost a foot long when they are full grown.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all know that I appreciate your comments, however, awards and invites are not necessary.

Many thanks to Rockwolf for the ID help with this tiny plant bug! This is one of the two Stictopleurus bugs known in the UK - S. punctatonervosus and S. abutilon. Both are historically rare or accidental, but have recently become well-established in the UK.
This bug was one of a number on our Acacia fimbriata. This shot and the one in the first comment box are obviously of different development stages. I have yet to see a mature specimen with wings fully developed. To give you an idea of their size, the diameter of the wattle flower is 5 mm.
I am still waiting for an ID. It is probably one of the Miridae family.
