also 16.52 for this week's theme: 'a bug's life' (or in this case: two bugs lives).
went out on my balcony to find a bug and was happy to find these two ;)

Military grade surveillance bugs emerged in the early 20th century and while the creators attempted to design less intimidating subjects, other plans were afoot.

The small milkweed bug (Lygaeus kalmii) is one common type of seed bug. It is found on many more plants than just milkweeds.
I'm still looking for the exact name for these guys... They are the same species just male and female. She is only a few mm long, and he is probably half the size of her.
I'm excited for spiders again!
This nymph has taken up residence in a canna lily flower. Its little wing buds are plane to see here.
One of the few insects that feeds on milkweed. My tropical milkweed is currently hosting them along with yellow aphids and Monarch caterpillars. Our beautiful world, pass it on.
I changed the formula a bit and tweaked the color and lighting settings a good deal. Mot a totally new fractal, just a light tweak, but I do like the results. Thank you, Garth, for sharing the parameters.

Halyomorpha halys, also known as the brown marmorated stink bug (BMSB), or simply the stink bug, is an insect in the family Pentatomidae, native to China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. It was accidentally introduced into the United States, with the first specimen being collected in September 1998. The brown marmorated stink bug is considered to be an agricultural pest.

From comment on previous photo: "It's a 'true bug', related to assassin bugs and stinkbugs. As the name suggests, it's an ambush predator, hiding in plain sight on flowers (depending its plant's colors, it can be almost invisible, or simply look like a bit of dried plant litter) and using those mantis-like front legs to grab other insects that come by."

My neighbour Pat has allowed me to take photos on her property. I love to walk the fence line between our yards. It's so beautiful on her 3 acres. I found this little bug waiting for a victim to come close so he could have a meal.

I was actually trying to shoot some lichen on this twig, when this guy wandered into the scene and demanded some attention.
This poor kid has such a bug phobia. She just can not hold it together around stink bugs or spiders. She's crazy allergic to mosquitos and develops these huge baseball sized welts wherever she's bitten. After several weeks of camp, creek walking, she is covered in massive itching welts. This evening a gnat flew in her ear and she fell to the ground, covered her head with her arms and just sobbed "I just can't do it anymore. I hate them so much. I just hate them! WHY DO THEY LOVE ME SO MUCH?"
I've been in Coventry visiting my parents for the weekend. Dad brought a conifer into the house to decorate as a Christmas tree - and a couple of juniper shield bugs came in with it :-) I haven't seen these in my garden, so a new photographic record from the weekend.
Handheld, natural light.
