The black Bug came out in 1988 and was meant to be a pro model for Mike Vallely but he wanted the elephant graphic so it bacame a Team Pro Model. The Pink Bug has a rounded nose and came out in 1989.
The green shield bugs (Palomena prasina) are coming out if hibernation more and more, with several seen this morning; still in their darker overwintering colour.
These two little love birds (bugs) are several that are slowly eating all of the new squashes that are setting...ugh!
hideous millipede appeared on shower curtain, actually ran over my stocking-enclosed foot! Tried to rinse it down drain but tub didn't drain fast enough. It sat unmoving; I thought it was drowned but, unsure, put kleenex around toilet brush and picked it up that way - it still lived! put it in toilet, added toilet-bowl cleaner, flushed it down.
If it is, it's a pest, accidentally imported from China or Japan, likely as a stowaway in packing crates, and first documented in the U.S. in 1998.
It is a "true bug," characterized by sucking mouthparts -- with a "beak" called a rostrum. Stinkbugs feed on plants; assassin bugs and ambush bugs feed on insects. This one appeared in my house suddenly -- maybe a stowaway in a pot of tulips from the grocery store, or having simply snuck in to get out of that 9 degree (F) (-12.8 C) chill we had a couple of days ago.
Fortunately I brought home half a dozen bug books from the libraries while researching ambush bugs and bees for an drawing in progress. It took a photograph and several books to get me close, and then the internet to get from one not-quite-right bug to another. Finally a nearly identical photo showed up under one of the false leads, and voila! I think I have it.
Thanks to Dr PhotoMoto I learned that many insects have ocelli -- simple eyes -- along with or instead of compound eyes. This one has two tiny round red ocelli just to the inside of his/her big "bug eyes." Also a pair of mostly invisible wings that overlap at the rear; parts of them show up slightly pinkish in this photo -- from the light, or a reflection from the red cap in there holding a plant I offered him. He's just under 1.5 cm long.
A mirid bug I found zooming around on a fence post on the driveway. I think it's Anthocoris nemorum (not Polymerus unifasciatus as I originally posted---thanks Martin Brown for the correction).
I'm starting to feel badly at how little I know about plants & insects. This little guy was mighty cute, but I don't know his name! The wild grasses in my backyard are just crawling with life! : ) Seen on June 28, 2007 in Columbia County, New York, USA. Identified as a Two-Spotted Grass Bug!

A large, spectacular shield bug. The spots in the middle of its back are iridescent green from certain angles.
It may belong to Pentatomidae or Tessaratomidae.

My feeble attempts at being a photographer...some of the photos I've seen in some of these groups are so incredible...I'll never measure up :(
