Pretty close-up shot!
Thank you, Belinda. It was one of those quick takes, but in processing, I saw it was a rather pretty bug. ๐
Beautiful.
Thank you, Gigi. It looks art deco, don’t you think? ๐
Yes, art deco! Love it.
Thank you, Laurie. Wouldn’t her design make a lovely enameled pin?
Yes, yes!
the beauty of life!
Indeed. Thanks, Kim!
Very pretty! You find the most unusual insects. I need to start looking a little closer. Maybe I will too. ๐
Thank you, Robin. They are everywhere! ๐
art deco for sure.. great capture
Thank you!
after a closer look, I get the art deco thing! Super.
Thank you, Ann. ๐
Beautiful capture,great details !
Love it very much !!!
Thank you very much!
A color-coordinated bug – sometimes nature is so accommodating!
Yes, indeed. ๐ Thanks, Kris!
Gorgeous bug… you know I love bugs ๐
Yes, you do, quite beautifully, too! ๐ Thanks, Noortje.
It looks to be a member of Heteroptera (True Bugs).
Yes, I thought so, too. Possibly genus Lygus. There are too many species to be sure! Thanks, Jim.
Great shot Eliza ๐๐ท
Thank you, Karen โค
It’s funny, you would think that the bug has a little golden heart on its back!
Isn’t it sweet? I thought so, too.
Very beautiful capture of the beauty of nature! I just love insects and insect photos! Lol โค And the colors here are so pretty!
Thank you, Kim. Insects can be so fascinating, can’t they?
Yes, I have always been interested in them since I was little. ๐
<3! I want to know what kind of bug it is. Any idea Eliza? If this is his head shot, he's hired!
Ha! Of course you want to know! ๐ It is definitely in the True Bug family, a Mirid Plant Bug, Genus Lygus, possibly L. shulli. With the gazillions of Genus/species out there, it takes an expert to be sure. ๐
That’s a cool looking bug! (I can say this, because he is not landing on me and scaring me.)
Thank you, Sarah. ๐ Most bugs are more afraid of you than you of them. “Yikes! BIG predator!” is how they react. ๐ I find them pretty interesting, as you can tell, and am pretty relaxed around them. I just don’t like to be lunch – mosquitoes, black flies, etc. are not welcome around me!
I have to remember they are afraid of me for the most part – it’s hard to do when some of them seem to think I’m lunch!
That’s a bug I’ve not seen before. It looks like some exotic golden demi-god scarab from Egypt. A beautiful creature.
Thank you! It was very tiny and it wasn’t until processing that I saw how lovely it really was. Definitely a demigod! ๐
A treasure Eliza!
Isn’t it? Thanks, Maria. ๐
