Top view of a black hornet with a reddish-brown head and scutellum. The second segment of its abdomen is a bright orange band like the skin of a somewhat dirty orange. Its legs and wings are splayed out The hornet now viewed from a diagonal, from below angle. There is a focus on its bright red head with dark red and black mandibles.

A mating pair of yellow and black ambush bugs on a matching colored goldenrod flower. The female bug is also munching on a bee. A lego figure is clinging to the petals of the flower and looking at the bugs with a horrified expression.
