I stopped by the lake yesterday in our smokey environment (thus the coloring). The smoke must have driven the insects lower, as the swallows, and this hummingbird, were having a grand time with the selection of tasty treats!

The great Meteor Storm of May 31st turned out to be a drizzle, but the lightning bugs and one good meteor all came together to make that 3a shoot worth it!
This beautiful female Blue Dasher sure did give this sick old lady a wonderful opportunity for lots of photos. I really enjoyed her. Hot summer here and I still can't get out anywhere. Thank You, Jesus, for beautiful bugs in God's garden!
This is a fun image, with one flaw, that Bugs has too many ears... And that rat seems to be extremely well fed...

Sally and I enjoyed watching a Trash Bug in our garden last year. The 2020 one isn't quite as colorful (see comments section). I went inside to look for a bit of glitter (to see if he would pile it on), but he disappeared and then it rained.
CC Week 19 - It's the Little Things
While taking flower photos at sunset I noticed that as it got later, more and more insects started to appear. Crane flies live only briefly in their adult phase, and are much more destructive in their larval stage when they can damage lawns and other plants. Adult crane flies do not eat very often. When they do, it might be sipping on nectar, as this one was attempting to do. Since they live most successfully in areas where there is plenty of water, it makes sense that they would do well in a wetter than usual year like this one.
