Today was a gorgeous day out with my bestie and her brother, enjoying the sun and sharing my honey cake with these very friendly bees. @jenmcninja has requested that I turn one of these honeybees into a sticker, so I guess I have to do that now! Is anyone else interested in stickers if I get some printed? What size do you like, and where would you stick them? #honeybees #honeycake #bugfriends #shareyourcake

I spotted this little Carpenter Bee ( possibly a Spurred Ceratina?) on a flower, and just as I went in for some photos, it flew onto my hand! It seemed to be enjoying itself licking up the salt because I watched it for a while and got some nice shots. I don't know how long it would have stayed, but after several minutes I eventually had to move on ๐ Olympus EM1 MKIII M.zuiko 60mm macro lens Godox v350 #Cygnustechdiffuser #bee #carpenterbee #backyardbugs #macro_highlight #macro_top1 #insectsoftheworld #pollinators #hikingadventures #omsystem #entomology #bugfriends #galeri_makro #universal_bee #universal_macro_

Where do bugs go to live in the colder months? Earlier this fall, area high school students helped prep materials for a children's #BugHotel-building program at our #Glouster branch. The result: this full-scale hotel for our pollinator friends in the library's green space! Led by librarian Tessa, program participants used household items like old cans, newspapers, cardboard, and more to make a 4-star accommodation. As the seasons change, we can watch bugs move in, and we can see who sticks around for the winter... #FreeLibraryPrograms #GetOutside #BugFriends #CrawlOnInn #AthensCountyOhio
Haha what the heck?! I couldn't believe when this leafhopper, ๐๐ช๐น๐ช๐ถ๐ด ๐ด๐ต๐ช๐จ๐ฎ๐ข๐ต๐ถ๐ด, crawled onto the back of this stink bug while I was taking shots of it! They look like good buddies haha! The stink bug couldn't care less, but the leafhopper seemed to be having fun and actually turned around a couple times on it's back. I've never actually seen this hopper before either, so it was quite an amazing scene.

I was going to write: "No caption, just wasps" for #MinimalistMonday but it just occured to me that people might hate/fear them without context...๐ This is a wasp appreciation post!!! You read that right ๐ฅ๐ค They are a great source of comfort & inspiration to me. We've been living with a wasp nest above our door for years. They are my favourite neighbours. I see them daily and handle them often. I have never been stung. They have never shown aggression towards me. In Autumn, the whole colony perishes on my frontstep and I carefully collect fallen soldier to pay my respects. Sometimes, I attempt to immortalize their beauty in small resin coffins. The Queen will hibernate and birth new friends when my favourite season returns ๐ฑ #Wasps #BugFriends #GoodBugs #WaspFriends #WaspAreFriends #LittleThingsThatBringMeJoy #WhereIFindInspiration #MyMuses

Good #MugshotMonday morning from the great state of Idaho and Designer Adam Reed! Every day, Adam commutes across the border to work at the #SCJSpokane office, but not before taking a few moments to enjoy a cup of coffee, the scenic views of his backyard, and the company of some unusual little friends - like the praying mantis and fuzzy bumblebee featured in the second and third photos.

I'm so happy to see a #blacksoldierfly by my #composttumbler ! The larva are distinguished from fly maggots by their large size and more segmented bodies. They are voracious predators and keep maggots out of your bins. They also quickly break down food waste themselves, similar to #redwigglers .

We invite you to join us tomorrow Saturday September 16th for a day of healing the land through invasive species removal. โก๏ธSwipe for more info โก๏ธ The woolly bear caterpillar is supposed to be a weather forecaster. The bigger the rusty brown band, the milder the winter will be. Apparently itโs gonna be quite mild! Iโve only ever seen this caterpillar in this forest. Have you seen it anywhere? Banana slugs and owls are among the creatures that call this forest home.
