Chloromyia formosa, Waffenfliege. I never knew that a fly with this name exists until I looked up my find.
I have often told you stories about the way
I lived the life of a drifter
Waiting for the day
When I'd take your hand and sing you songs
Then maybe you would say
"Come lay with me and love me"
And I would surely stay
But I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill going round
Guess I'll always be a soldier of fortune
Many times I've been a traveller
I looked for something new
In days of old when nights were cold
I wandered without you
But those days I thought my eyes had seen you standing near
Though blindness is confusing
It shows that you're not here
Now I feel I'm growing older
And the songs that I have sung
Echo in the distance
Like the sound
Of a windmill going round
Guess I'll always be a soldier of fortune
I can hear the sound
Of a windmill going round
Guess I'll always be a soldier of fortune
I guess I'll always be
A soldier of fortune
Which I thought for so many years
That I would forever be
But I found you, you found me
I'm no soldier of fortune anymore
That's history, that's past
Light is always ahead
Even angels are around us

Spined soldier bug (member of the stink bug family) sucking the life out of a black swallowtail caterpillar. This event took place on a dill plant that the caterpillar was feasting on.
In my eyes, I will die a benevolent soldier
take my life, this gift of mine

Support your veterans. Demand that the powers that be give them the support they need. All too often they're turned into warriors, and then get no help re assimilating into society.
My first pic to hit 50 faves. Thank you.
My son (Ryan) and I just got back from a five day photography trip to northern Illinois and southern Wisconsin. This image was taken in Galena, Illinois. There were lots of these insects in Galena and even more in Mineral Point.

The Rio Grande Zephyr train No. 18 crests 7440 ft. Soldier Summit on June 4, 1978. The train ascended 3000 feet of elevation in 50 miles of track between Provo and the summit. It will descend 1625 feet of elevation by the time it reaches Helper, 25 miles down Price Canyon.
Has anybody seen my soldier, standing all alone?
Has anybody seen my soldier, just trying to get home?

I build a wall and blow up all bridges
systematically suppressing all thoughts about you
burn all photographs and censor the songs
come what may, I must never lose control again.
everything that's moving, I keep it under close surveillance
have suspect elements immediately eliminated
a sign of weakness, a tremble of my fingers is enough
I need cool blood, because it does me no good to remember you.
it does me no good to remember you.
and everytime my heart cries for you
and chaos erupts inside of me,
I send my soldiers
to break down the restistance.
everytime my heart cries for you
and it's burning in the streets inside of me,
I order my army to do everything
to put it to silence again.
it is gagged, broken,
it gets locked up.
and finally my poor heart obeys.
The common red soldier beetle is also known as the 'bloodsucker' for its striking red appearance, but it is harmless. It is a beneficial garden insect as the adults eat aphids, and the larvae eat other pests. They are 1 cm long.
The common red soldier beetle is a medium-sized, narrow beetle commonly found on open-structured flowers, such as daises, cow parsley and hogweed, during the summer. It can be spotted on grasslands, along hedgerows, and in woodland, parks and gardens. Adults feed on aphids, and also eat pollen and nectar. Larvae prey on ground-dwelling invertebrates, such as slugs and snails, and live at the base of long grasses. The adults spend much of their short, summer lives mating, and can often be seen in pairs.

If I should die, think only this of me:
That there’s some corner of a foreign field
That is for ever England. There shall be
In that rich earth a richer dust concealed;
A dust whom England bore, shaped, made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam;
A body of England’s, breathing English air,
Washed by the rivers, blest by suns of home.
