An orange ladybug climbs along a yellow stalk of corn. A cricket backed into a small hole in the dirt, using the hole to amplify the sound of his song.

Barely noticeable, Elattoneura analis is an incongruously named White-legged damselfly (its legs are actually black).

An immature female River Jewelwing, Calopteryx aequabilis displaying the bright metallic green and red on his face that is caused by the surface micro-structure rather than by pigments. As this species ages the facial colors may dull or darken. The eyes will also darken. Many species of damselflies and dragonflies display bright structural coloration on their heads. A focus stacked image shot with a Mitutoyo M Plan APO 5x infinity objective and Nikon D810 DSLR camera.

It was great to find Mnais pruinosa in Japan. Flash showed slight iridescence in otherwise transparent wings.

Giant water bugs are one of the many freshwater invertebrates that get infected with mites❗️These guys are more commonly called toe biters - sit and wait predators that hide in substrate waiting for a snack to come along 🍽️ Watch your toes 💥

Amazing ant mimic - looked just like a tiny ant hanging out near other ants, but is actually a plant bug larvae (iNat suggests Closterocoris amoenus).

A male River Jewelwing damselfly, Calopteryx aequabilis on Cox Creek, Albany, Oregon. Nikon D700 with a 200mm Micro-Nikkor. A wing flair display is used to signal "this is my spot, back-off!" They stand on their tiptoes, hyper-alert and aware of my presence a few inches away, ready to flit to another nearby perch. Males like visible perches to stage their competitive aerial display for watching females. The males also have a fairly wide set of mating displays performed closer to an individual target female that appears receptive to his advances.

They stand on their tiptoes, hyper-alert and aware of my presence a few inches away, ready to flit to another nearby perch. Females have favorite perches to give them clear view of males performing different intricate flight displays in groups and individually.

DOES ANYONE READ THESE OR CARE? A mature female River Jewelwing damselfly, Calopteryx aequabilis on Cox Creek, Albany, Oregon. The eyes have darkened as she matured and the bright metallic structural colored patches have also darkened, while the base of each antennae and several patches on the face have become bright cream-colored patches. Her wing membranes have darkened and the veins are dark green and there is a bright white pseudostigma. DOES ANYONE READ THESE OR CARE?
