Showcasing an array of bizarre food creations, the unusual menu consists of extreme 'delicacies' such as parfaits topped with a crisp cicada, dishes containing fried bugs and insects, as well as roasted crows and crocodile.

This beautiful flower in a neighbor's yard in Santa Rosa, Sonoma County, California is drawing insects. This was taken with my iPhone 14 Pro Max on the Raw and Macro settings.
I found this pretty little bug just sitting on the leaf, and it stayed for a bit so I could get some shots :)
Hope everyone has a great week! :)
Not too bad for a shot that went wrong ( again ! ) , subject ended up very dark so only answer was to just go the whole hog and make it a silhouette . Oh , some may ask what bird it is , a robin who keeps hopping about on the fence and perching on the roof of the " Alpha Bug Hotel " which some of you may recall from my recent shot - " I Am Chaos " !

Not only the eyes show up fluorescence.

The tip of the forewing of Heteroptera is fairly thick (~1.2 microns), thus there is no color iridescence visible (brown curve). The base is even thicker and leathary. This is the origin of the name "hemiptera" which means "half-winged". The newer name Heteroptera means also "mixed-wings". This leads to the typical "X" structure of the closed wings in dorsal view, which is an easy means to identify "true" bugs.
Hind wings in contrast, are much thinner (~0.2 microns here), which leads to a brillant blue-violett if illuminated coaxially.

If you ever wonder where the old VW Bugs went to, you can find many of them in Mexico. We found this one in San Miguel de Allende recently. This is processed in the spirit of Sliders Sunday. HSS!
The quote from the animation Bug's Life by the Grasshopper "You let one ant stand up to us, then they all might stand up! Those puny little ants out number us a hundred to one and if they ever figure that out there goes our way of life! It's not about food, it's about keeping those ants in line."
Textures applied and glass panes applied to this doll house of horror through photo slides. The rest is an art display by Jennifer Angus.
Bug is pretty hard to identify in this photo but it is firmly held at the tip of the beak. I probably would not have posted this if it were not my very first hummingbird image of 2022 ... :)
Rufous Hummingbird - Juvenile or Female
Colorado Springs, CO
Blooming in at the end of summer and into fall, our plants of Sedum 'Autumn Joy' are not only beautiful, but they give the insect world one last feeding frenzy before the cold winter arrives.
I spent an hour or two on my stomach, back, and knees the other day revelling in this micro environment, enjoying the colors, critters, and the cool air! Hope you're enjoying it with me through Flickr :)
