            Saw this grasshopper at work. Happened to get a sharp photo. He was hanging out on the side of the building for a few hours

                            @Mister_Brue don’t know, but in my experience lately, bugs ain’t scared of anything. I’ve never been able to get close enough to photograph them but they just don’t care anymore.

                            Side note: I’ve had an abnormal amount of flies in the house this year. It’s like the lord of the flies decided that he was trading quality for quantity though - they’ve been slow and dumb and easier to kill because they don’t seem to sense danger or value their lives. Maybe I’m just becoming a more efficient killer, but they don’t stand a chance these days. Others have reported a similar experience this year though so i can’t take the credit. This leads me to believe there has been a change in the housefly population. Just my thoughts lol

                                    This Carolina Mantis was waiting outside my door for me. And for whatever reason this Asterocampa kept flying into me every time I leaned up against a particular tree at the playground!!

                                      Got a tick bite that infected badly. In the end there was a hole in my calf one could stick a finger to and dig around. And that was what helthcare professionals did to remove dead stuff, not with the finger thought. Nasty creatures some of them insects

                                        @aksu upvote for the butterflies not the tick! I thought they looked familiar and discovered that mourning cloaks are the same as Camberwell beauties (the name I’m used to).

                                          @ARNC I had to check the english name and used mourning cloak because finnish name is direct translation from that. For the looks beauty suits better
