I work at Walmart and this aphidlion larva surprise bit the shit out of me out of nowhere he will live forever in infamy and in an alcohol specimen tube

Beautifully arranged “aphid lion” eggs on the underside of a canna lily leaf. A lacewing placed these here on now-hardened mucus strings to protect them from predation - and while I didn’t see aphids nearby, the mama lacewing often strategically locates her babies near a delicious aphid community for a nice birthday feast. #lacewingeggs #aphidlion #welcometotheneighborhood #farmecosystem
