Seen in Epping Forest. Shame about the out-of-focus shoulder pad, I'll know next time to have a larger DOF for one of these beasts.

I and Rasik were on a wild walk when Rasik spotted this BUG, and we both were ready with our cameras, as soon as we had started there was another one, telling us - Wait me too....... ( and both were in our cameras... wait for next upload...)
Bug and Rodents – Here's a little something different I did that's going into a show that opens today. I hardly ever show anything but this is one I couldn't wait to participate in and so glad to get the invite.
The theme of the show is 'Pest Control' and there's a bit of everything in here.

a long day comes to an end and now it's finally the weekend
- and thanks dad for the photo support ;)
Punaise des arbres et buissons que l'on rencontre du printemps à l'automne puis se cachent en hiver dans l'écorces des arbres.
Plant bug and bushes that are encountered from spring to autumn and then hides in winter in the tree' barks.
This is a funny one. With birds and bugs, I usually know immediately with a good view whether I have seen or shot one before. With this one I did not know, but the colours made me highly motivated to make the shot. I did not think much of it afterwards until posting it on iNaturalist and discovering that it is only the second to ever be reported in Manitoba on INat. The first was reported in late July of this year.
My impression was that they were commonplace and, upon learning otherwise, thought perhaps it was because I had seen them on FLICKR. However, I figured it out today: it is on the cover of my main insect guide Kaufman Field Guide to Insects of NA.
Surprisingly, I found the bug at the Living Prairie Museum despite the fact that we probably have much more milkweed on our property than they have.
A 3D printed white plastic bug refrigerator magnet made by my son in middle school. Wingtip-to-wingtip measures 2.5".
The "bug" is placed on a white acrylic sheet with a bare single off-camera flash about 6" (18cm) overhead and white-balance manually set to "flash".
Post-processing consisted of cropping, converting to black-and-white and slight adjustment of the tone curve.
Took the Beetle for a spin today after being stored over the winter. Took some shots next to a field of rape. 10 minutes later I broke down and had to call for help. Nice to break down in the middle of a busy island junction!
I don't know the name of that bug. Does anybody know it's name?
The length of that bug is just about 2mm and unfortunately I had no tripod with me. Therefore this is a free hand shot, made just with the help of my E-M1 in body image stabilizer.
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
Bugsy checking out the street view and occasionally admiring our outside Christmas Lights. :)
Bugsy always looks forward to Christmas. He gets treats, toys, and sweaters.
Merry Christmas to all!
This little fellow has been invading my office twice today (flying and crawling). I have never seen this species before. Now I know this bug is "Leptoglossus occidentalis" and comes from North America. First seen in Europe in the late 1990s, since 2006 here in Germany.
I put him on my window sill where he remained and observed me all day long.

My plan was to capture the shroom but then this bug landed and the camera changed focus. I had it set on a 5sec delay so...
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.
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.
This bug, wanting to become the smartest one in the world, kept me company during the last night's endless learning session.
I'm only assuming this is a Grasshopper due to the short antennae. But, it does look more Cricket like.
One of the many bugs rescued from the pool whilst on holiday. They soon dried out and hopped off!
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.
