Recently got a pair of European stag beetles (Lucanus cervus cervus). They are a favourite of mine but holy fuck they lay dormant for so long. I’ll see you next summer buddy
(He is captive bred outside of Europe.)

My very first picture of a dragonfly, and what a pretty one to immortalize! It’s an immature female, if I’m not mistaken. Mature ones are much redder!

One of the many European fritillaries one can find in clear, sunny meadows. Common, but still very pretty from up close!

While photographing the Leafbirds, this cool little Hypolycaena butterfly flew around us and landed on the foliage before us.

A small pretty white spider for #Arachtober!

This species of crab spiders is able to change its color, usually to whites or yellows, to hide itself on flowers and catch unsuspecting prey.

Cute little symphyta wasp! It’s always hard to get clean pictures of these, they are always so agitated!

Specimen living in captivity at Hunawihr butterfly garden, France.

Truly an impressive species in terms of batesian mimicry! Its wing patterns imitate the face of an owl to deter predators.

Woah! Hi everybody, I’m Blackyu! 👋
I come from good ol’ x dot com in search of greener pastures and crawlier insects.

Good to meet y’all! I plan to upload my bug pics and talk about my fiery passion for bugs, creepy crawlies and nature in general.

First pics coming soon!
