Why double? Well, if you look carefully you should see that this fellow has another bug attached to his behind. I wonder what they were up to...???
I wish my air conditioner worked so I could close my windows and crazy bugs would stop getting in my house. And FYI, I captured this little guy and sent him safely on his way outside. (22/365)
A forest bug (Pentatoma rufipes); this shield bug is found in a wide range of deciduous trees, especially in orchards.
Sort of looks like the dinosaur of the bug world.
I found this one balancing on a road sign.
They are the most unusual bug I have ever encountered.

Happened to find the instructions for careful placement of your plastic boxes that claim to produce a negative ion field.
Deciding to stop being lazy and take some pictures. I saw this little guy on a flower I figured I would not be able to get close enough to take a picture before he took off, but he actually sat there and let me take a few. I was also lucky enough to get him just as he was taking off.
WIT: I did a little cropping and adjusted the brightness.
(the one of him sitting is in my photostream if you would like to see it)
