I seem to shoot in phases these days. Suddenly the bug bites and I want to take a picture or two. That happened today following brief contact with Jim.
Thanks Jim.
The orchids are a lovely gift from Steve & Linda.
Thank you Steve and Linda.

Think the ID is correct but if anybody thinks different I would be very glad to know as I am a very amateurish bug detector
Nelson Nevada. Fisheye view of the bug under the moon. Added white light to the front and headlights with a bluish purple inside.
When I uploaded this, I couldn't resist having a play around with it.
Thank you everyone for the favourites. :O)

A Common Shield Bug (Palomena prasina) on Marsh Ragwort (Senecio aquaticus).
Daneshill Lakes Nature Reserve.
Taken on our dam I wondered down to see if the water lily’s had any more life left in them & found this bug doing what bugs do.
Just got an id back from the experts & it turned out to be new for me. There is no common name for genus or species but it is part of the family of shield-backed bugs. Not a beetle but a true bug. Kin to stink bugs but different family. It was feeding off the juices of a giant ragweed plant at the lake.
Shield-backed Bug (Sphyrocoris obliquus)
Giant Ragweed (Ambrosia trifida)

I found this little chap on an outside wall and can't identify it.
Anyone know?
Edit. Now identified as final instar nymph of Parent Bug (Elasmucha grisea).
Happy "Looking close... on Friday!" with "bugs & co".
... and thanks a lot for your views, faves and comments! :-)
My husband thinks this is a cherry tree, but I thought cherry blossoms were pink, so I am not sure lol.

It was a dark and stormy day.
One minute, it was a mottled, ho-hum cloudy kind of day. The kind you hate. The kind that makes you wish it was a few hours earlier or later; the better for the weather to start throwing a temper tantrum, or something. So it was going at the Bug Ranch in Conway, Texas, on Route 66.
Well, I wasn't paying attention. Suddenly I noted that the sky had turned, not black, but into a sheer opaque beige wall of dust and grime advancing on me which completely obscured the buildings and highway I had been fretting about in the foreground of my proposed shots. The wind rose, the temperature dropped, and the hair stood up on the back of my neck. I ran for the car, and found shelter just as a crescendo of wind and sound and spitting rain started keening around me.
Fifteen minutes later it was gone, but it left lasting damage on I-40 going east: a five or six hour delay cleaning up a massive four-semi accident, where at least one trucker lost their life and several others were injured.
