Just happened to see this stink bug in the process of molting. After it emerged from the shell, it slowly made a circle back around to face the exoskeleton it had just shed, stuck its head in and flipped the empty shell off the post. It remained in the same location for the rest of the day. By nightfall it had changed colors becoming much darker.

Pyrrhocoris apterus o cimice del fuoco è un insetto che si trova spesso intorno agli alberi e nelle loro cortecce. Qui è ritratto un accoppiamento spudorato in mezzo alla strada....

Yucca filamentosa

Stinkbugs seem to especially like this plant as seen in this photo. It gets its species name from the threadlike filaments along the leaf margins.

Another case of finding a new species on Queen Anne's lace. It was a beauty with bold markings. Not quite as exciting as a new butterfly but who knew stink bugs could be so pretty?
