Reupload of this bug shot with the contrast and brightness pushed just a bit more to get a purer white background for the whiteground group . . .
This adorable little guy is Zelus, probably Zelus luridus, and although they're skittish and difficult to photograph as adults, this one is a nymph and has no wings (this is the form in which the species overwinters), so he can't fly away. I found him on a branch, then he strolled nonchalantly onto my arm, so here he is! I'm not that hairy, so you can see how small he is. I just love their little "L-shaped" feet! :)
These bugs that look like ladybugs but are much meaner were swarming everywhere, meaning our trip was cut short.

I presume one of the large family of shield bugs by it's shape.
Not a great image but that was the best I could do in the circumstances.

Another bug shot from the other day which I had forgotten about! Not sure what it is, some sort of shield bug I think. The sun was shining brightly and was reflecting off his back making him look multicoloured! Thanks to Lady BH for the ID! This one is an early instar.
Milkweed bugs are usually found in groups on milkweed plants , often on the underside of the leaves. The plant produces a milky white sap when a leaf is removed. These plants are large (3-4 feet high) with sprays of small white flowers in the summer. In the fall , seed pods develop which are 4 inches long and 1 1/2 inches wide. When the seeds ripen, the seed pods open up releasing the seeds which float on fluffy white parasols. Milkweed bugs can be found on seed pods piercing the wall of the pod to feed on seeds. Milkweed bugs are one of a small group of insects that have the ability to tolerate the toxic (poisonous) compounds in the milkweed plant. They are therefore important in regulating populations of this plant.

Found this little bug on my window screen when I got home from work. Have not seen one of these for a very long time.

My friend, Barb, LOVES her Bug.
When I was lending her a hand, one day recently, I had a Weekly Assignment on Photoworkshop.com, "Blue", floating lazily in the back of my mind.
I set about extracting images from Her Cerulean Highness.

bugs making more bugs. i'm thinking it doesn't matter if they have the lights on or not, 'cause they're not likely to be able to see each other
This grasshopper is most often found on the forest floor among low plants. I have found that it can be quite common around dead, fallen trees in the forest, especially in partially sunlit areas. The nymphs are distinctively colored.
On the inside they said "Our bug is turning one." I know. Nauseatingly cute, right? I couldn't help myself. He is our bug.
