so difficult to recall all these bugs' names but i'm sure i've posted something similar before. so alien looking! wouldn't like to be bitten by those nasty looking mandibles!
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
Captured with my iPhone 8 and the "black eye" macro lens...for this weeks "Looking close... on Friday!"

Bugs Bunny is an animated cartoon character, created in the late 1930s
Bugs Bunny is an anthropomorphic gray and white hare or rabbit who is famous for his flippant, insouciant personality. He is also characterized by a Brooklyn accent, his portrayal as a trickster, and his catch phrase "Eh... What's up, doc?" Due to Bugs' popularity during the golden age of American animation, he became an American cultural icon and the official mascot of Warner Bros. Entertainment. Wikipedia
Every morning I look out my windows and I see cute bunnies hoping around, playing, and having fun… They always brighten my morning..
Smiles my Friends :-))
Catching up with a few shieldbugs.
I've hardly seen any this year despite seeing lots of Forest bugs earlier in the year.

A Common Shield Bug (Palomena prasina) on Marsh Ragwort (Senecio aquaticus).

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.
Series of three. I have just started putting together a Bug Hotel on my allotment. Poppy (the local cat, that loves my potting shed) thinks she might move into the bug hotel instead!
Happy "Looking close... on Friday!" with "bugs & co".

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.
Actually its not my hobby. I just bought them at ebay to practice macros with subjects which do not run away ;-) Focus Bracketing for example which I have also used here to get the whole bug sharp (not the needles).
I saw this bug on a car window. When I saw the image on the computer I liked the effect and to me it looks as if it is in space.
This bug is genus Riptortus, a pod-sucking true bug, with piercing and sucking mouthparts.

Leaffooted Bug (A true bug!), Leptoglossus oppositus

This bug was on the outside of the window and all other reflections (camera lens, etc.), dirt specs and outdoor images are as they appeared and have not been added or manipulated.

Leptoglossus is a genus of true bugs in the leaf-footed bug family. Several species are economic pests of agricultural crops. Like members of some other genera in the family, these bugs have leaflike dilations of the hind tibia. Leptoglossus oppositus is one of a variety of species of leaf-footed bugs. It looks very much like Leptoglossus fulvicornis but can be distinguished by the deeper scallops in the leaf-like feature of the hind tibia and the addition of three white spots across the hemelytra.
