Hey, there. Am presently in panicked photo printing mode (co. fair deadline)
but owe you photos from July, so here's 5 lovelies for you.
Lookit! I found an ambush bug on the mint plant again this year. Hurrah!! =D
They look SO tough, but are SO tiny. =)
Turns out, there's TWO on this plant.
This second one was darker.
If ambush bugs found, then biobabbler is happy.
A very yellow bee on a native, BIG ol' aster. SO very fuzzy! =D
Honey bee putting her left foot in (hokey-pokey style),
showing off that off-white pollen. =D
Hoverfly on mustard at the work site.
Little beauty. =D
So, hope you enjoyed this glimpse into July bugginess,
next post will be August charmers.
If you'd like to share your summer bug posts via links in the comments, feel free! =D

Nice. Your big ol' aster is a rare plant, btw - Wyethia elata, Hall's Mule's Ears, which is a CNPS rank 4.3 regional endemic.
ReplyDeletePROVING that "Cool people write inside rectangles..." YOU rock. That's SO cool, I LOVE it. And we've got a few patches of those GIANT lovelies which are practically the only thing blooming at the time. THANK YOU. =D
