@faggomorph​ submitted: Hey there! i haven't seen many bugs nowadays that it's cold out, but i wanted to share some that i found over the warmer months :]

Black swallowtail caterpillar! very cute. caterpillars are some of my favorites, im a sucker for anything with lots of little legs

some sort of calligrapher flies. it was hard to get a good shot of these since they're so small. i remember one of them landed right on my nose!

i think this is a tarnished plant bug, this photo is one of my favorites :)

INaturalist tells me this one is a Peck's Skipper. very fuzzy fellow

aaand lots of Harlequin bug nymphs! i love the patterns on them, they're very fashionable little guys.

that's all, hope you enjoy them ❤️

Hello! I enjoy all of these friends deeply, thank you. Espcially the skipper........effervescent :)

Cotton Harlequin Bug (s)

wannabe_entomologist This was literally a quarter of the Cotton Harlequin bug nymphs (Tectocoris diopthalmus) I found at the kids’ school yesterday. I would have gotten video of them all, but I was already standing on a bench outside the library to reach these guys (what can I say, I’m short) and couldn’t reach the others unless I really pulled the tree way down and brought more attention to the crazy lady in the bushes with three embarrassed kids
