Buggy Afternoon
Sunday, July 10th, 2011
I took my +4 close-up lens out with me this afternoon. I think it helped. This bee was aprox 3/8 inches.
Looks like a yellow ladybug. aprox 3/16
In the 6th and B Garden.
Boldly marked wasp. Aprox 1 1/8 in. Probably an Eastern Cicada Killer, a wasp non-aggressive to humans.
After stalking all these insects today, this one crawled down the back of my tee shirt as I was crossing Houston Street. I’m afraid my quick grab, before he made it all the way down, injured it. Aprox 1 1/8 in. Beetle not roach, or at least that’s what I’m telling myself.
look at the claws on that thing. it’s like a gigantic mutant bed bug.
Nooooooooooo! It’s just a poor lost beetle looking for a cool drink of my neck sweat.
