I could see myself taking on an insect photography hobby if I didn't already have too many hobbies. There are constant opportunities in this place at this time of year. An iPhone is not the best camera for this work, but sometimes it does ok!

I rescued this […]

Ripe tansy flowers. A bright green praying mantis clings to the backside, an inch away from a large brown truebug on the bloom to the right.

I just had a visitor! I looked him up and it turns out that these insects were once only found at Box Hill in Surrey (all Jane Austen fans will immediately think of Emma) but have now, apparently, spread north of Lincoln. I don't get many visitors 😊

A water strider (Family: Gerridae) shot from above with the head pointed towards the bottom left of frame. The water has some tannins but is clear enough to see the rocks and molm that is out of focus at the bottom of the river

A Shield Bug on a pink flower and covered in rain drops. I saw this, fortuitously, while photographing flowers. What a pretty find.

Goofy little hemipteran on some goldenrod. Not sure what species they are. But they're probably a treehopper or leafhopper of some sort. #InverteFest2025 #NativeSpecies #Hemiptera #TrueBug #Insects #Cute #Solidago #Mississippi #USfauna #MSfauna
