A killdeer zeros in on a bug in the reflective water of Cherry Creek, where it empties into Cherry Creek Reservoir.
(114/366) I haven't got a bug butt photo for today but I have got a Bug Box. Like we really need more things to pack when we do eventually move but I couldn't resist buying this for just €4.99 from Lidl.
The Volkswagen Bug is rarely seen these days. When I was young you could hardly go anywhere and not see one.
Chrysolina Americana - Rosemary Beetle At the organic lavender fields, they ask if you see these little beauties to pick them off and put them in a little container and hand them in. Mr. K decided when he was seeing them to pick them off, however we had not picked up a container lol! So he carried these three little beauties around the fields with him, they are all lying on their backs in this shot, but I will post a diff shot at some point as they were nifty little bugs! HBBBT! They never made it to be handed in as they made their escape before Mr. K made it to the entrance point hee hee!
Waiting for the 'It's Tough To Be a Bug' show to start.
I should wear those sexy glasses all the time!
Life in the undergrowth. you just have to look. Preferably with some optical aid...

A bug, possibly of the Pentatomidae family, but I cannot get any closer than that..
Suburban Canberra, Australia, January, 2017.
This nice bug was found by my cousin. I captured this image in the Great Nemunas Loops regional park near the Nemunas river. The bug seemed very interesting for me because of black spot on its body, it looks like a money-box. ;)
Please have a view of full size... Thanks :)

I and Rasik were on a wild walk when Rasik spotted this BUG, and we both were ready with our cameras, as soon as we had started there was another one, telling us - Wait me too....... ( and both were in our cameras... wait for next upload...)
Now I’m speechless
Over the edge and just breathless
I never thought that I’d catch this
Love bug again
Hopeless head over heels in the moment
I never thought that I’d get hit
With this love bug again ♥ ,.

This bug's eyes are behind the long antennae, but it kind of looks like it has a sorrowful 'face' looking down between the front legs
This pile of rotting logs, covered in moss makes for a luxury bug hotel. Spotted in Bayhurst Wood on my walk with Ross this morning.

Bug and Rodents – Here's a little something different I did that's going into a show that opens today. I hardly ever show anything but this is one I couldn't wait to participate in and so glad to get the invite.
The theme of the show is 'Pest Control' and there's a bit of everything in here.
Hands belong to daughter's bf....they saw the stick bug on the wall of a building and brought it over because "gangie wants to see it" granddaughter said....
It was the creepiest thing ever! BF tried to put it on me, I had to threaten him. View large if you have a minute.
Did you know?? .... there are over 3,000 species of stick bugs in the world and they can be almost a foot long when they are full grown.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope you all know that I appreciate your comments, however, awards and invites are not necessary.

Many thanks to Rockwolf for the ID help with this tiny plant bug! This is one of the two Stictopleurus bugs known in the UK - S. punctatonervosus and S. abutilon. Both are historically rare or accidental, but have recently become well-established in the UK.
This bug was one of a number on our Acacia fimbriata. This shot and the one in the first comment box are obviously of different development stages. I have yet to see a mature specimen with wings fully developed. To give you an idea of their size, the diameter of the wattle flower is 5 mm.
I am still waiting for an ID. It is probably one of the Miridae family.
