Or, otherwise known as a boxelder bug and considered by many to be a nuisance. They are most abundant during hot, dry summers. While walking along the bar ditch a few days ago I found pairs of them all over the place. Busy little buggers.
My online journal sharing interests in photography, nature, coffee life, journaling, fountain pens, bicycling, spirituality and asking deep questions.

This shot, rated PG-13! 🙂 Great shot, Monte. Bugs only become an nuisance after they don’t do what we would like them to do!

You are so right. We are that way with plants, what’s a weed and what’s not a weed. These paris were all over the plance, mating season? I almost felt intrusive.

Monte bringing us PG_13 pictures. Moving west has warped your young mind! I love the name of this insect. It fits perfectly the look of these critters.

And they were everywhere.
