The Temple of Aphaia (Greek: Ναός Αφαίας) or Afaea is located within a sanctuary complex dedicated to the goddess Aphaia. Formerly known as the Temple of Jupiter Panhellenius, the great Doric temple is now recognized as dedicated to the mother-goddess Aphaia. It was a favourite of the Neoclassical and Romantic artists such as J. M. W. Turner.

 

It stands on a c. 160 m peak on the eastern side of the island approximately 13 km east by road from the main port of Aegina island, which lies in the Saronic Gulf, Greece.

 

Aphaea (Greek: Ἀφαία, Aphaía) was a Greek goddess who was worshipped almost exclusively here. She originated as early as the 14th century BCE as a local deity associated with fertility and the agricultural cycle. Under the later Athenian hegemony she came to be identified with the goddesses Athena and Artemis and with the nymph Britomartis as well, by the 2nd century CE, the time of Pausanias:

 

On Aigina as one goes toward the mountain of Zeus, god of all the Hellenes, the sanctuary of Aphaia comes up, for whom Pindar composed an ode at the behest of the Aeginetans. The Cretans say (the myths about her are native to Crete) that Euboulos was the son of Kharmanor, who purified Apollo of the killing of the Python, and they say that Britomartis was the daughter of Zeus and Kharme (the daughter of this Euboulos). She enjoyed races and hunts and was particularly dear to Artemis. While fleeing from Minos, who lusted after her, she cast herself into nets cast for a catch of fish. Artemis made her a goddess, and not only the Cretans but also the Aeginetans revere her. The Aeginetans say that Britomartis showed herself to them on their island. Her epithet among the Aeginetans is Aphaia, and it is Diktynna of the Nets on Crete. Description of Greece 2.30.3

This is a nymph of the Large Milkweed Bug. "Bug" is a common word for insect, but it also refers to a specific class of insects, the Hemiptera.

 

"Large" is a relative term. This Large Milkweed Bug nymph was less than 1/2" long (about 13mm). Larva of milkweed bugs develop in stages ("instars") before becoming an adult. These instars are commonly called "nymphs".

 

Interestingly, adult milkweed bugs migrate south during the winter, and return to Michigan in warmer weather to eat the seeds of my Butterfly (milk-)Weed plants.

 

There is a picture of an adult "Small Milkweed Bug" in the first comment below.

   

"We do not want merely to see beauty... we want something else which can hardly be put into words- to be united with the beauty we see, to pass into it, to receive it into ourselves, to bathe in it, to become part of it. That is why we have peopled air and earth and water with gods and goddesses, and nymphs and elves."

Бела топола (Salicaceae) је листопадно дрво из породице врба . Расте на обалама река и на влажним местима. Може израсти и преко 30 метара. Као флорни елемент припада биљкама које су евроазијског порекла. Белу тополу је лако препознати по њеном двобојном лишћу: лице је тамно зелене боје а наличје листа сребрнасто бело.

Прича о двобојности листа нас враћа у далека времена.

Грчки бог подземља Хад заволео је лепу нимфу Леуку, ћерку Океана и Тетије. Хад је толико волео Леуку да ју је одвео у своје подземно царство. Када је умрла, Хад од туге и бола за њом претворио је Леуку у белу тополу и посадио је на Јелисејским пољима, уз обалу једне од седам река подземног света, реку Ахерон – реку бола.

Када је грчки јунак Херакло завршио свој дванаести задатак, а то је да доведе троглавог Хадовог пса Кербера који је чувао улаз у подземни свет, на повратку је убрао лишће са топола поред реке Ахерон и себи направио победнички венац којег је ставио на своју главу. Листови који су додирнули његово чело од његовог божанског зноја постали су сребранасто бели а други, који нису додирнули његово чело, остали су тамно зелени.

Бела топола је посвећена Хераклу, а кад дува поветарац можете је препознати по треперавом лишћу које као да светлуца. Такође је можете препознати и по белом стаблу. Бела топола у Србији спада у категорију заштићених биљних врста.

We're seeing fewer macro subjects in the garden, as the summer heat and drought wear on. Still have these guys, though...

Hanging on to a ragged salvia flower...

In the Comox Valley.

There are a lot of these medium sized, brown Butterflies flying here now. They look quite drab as they flit around, but if you can get close, there is a lot to see and appreciate.

Possible Scudder’s Bush Katydid nymph. Tettigoniidae are commonly called katydids, bush crickets or long-horned grasshoppers. More than 6,400 species are known. Body length of this specimen is about 1.4cm. Flower is 'Aloha' Calibrachoa, about 2.5cm diameter. They are evergreen short-lived perennials. Photo is from my garden. By the way, the nymph devoured the entire flower in one day!

And one more katydid nymph, this time riding a salvia flower. Discouraging that the gardens don't seem to have as many other insects this summer - quite a few of these though...

Bluegreen Aphid (Acyrthosiphon kondoi) nymph

 

Back to Pam and Steve's Roses for BBBT today, there is not many other bugs around. This one measures around 3 mm in length and I am guessing a 3rd instar nymph.

 

Happy Beautiful Bug Butt Thursday!
