#cucumber beetle

An adorable cucumber beetle I encountered on the exterior wall of my workplace today. I used to think these guys were ladybugs, just elliptical and green.

@onenicebugperday thought you might like to admire them

I’m finding myself really missing being able to go out into my flower patch and watch the bugs after work. I can’t wait for it to be warm enough to start getting things in the ground, I’m trying to keep myself occupied with planning for this growing season but I want it to be here already 😅

I hope I get praying mantids again this year. They were some of my favorite to watch and kept the pests in check for me. Like this Cucumber Beetle

They were kinda annoying making some holes in my flowers but were kept in check enough so it wasn’t a problem.

I saved a bunch of seeds from everything I could so it’ll be nice to not have to buy more and they should be more adapted to the area. I think I have room to make another flower bed in the backyard, which means more bugs and plants!

February 2023: Sunday Walk & Garden

Seen while walking: 

This was the first time I had noticed this path. I wasn’t able to get very far before the ground got too wet. I’ll return some time wearing my snake boots: 

I came across some daffodils growing in a field so I dug some up & brought them home in this discarded plastic bag. I tied it to my belt with a bit of weed wacker string that I found: 

It was a little windy but sunny & comfortable: 

Back at home: 

The cold took its toll on our succulent planting: 

But there are signs of recovery:

@marshmallow-fluffy submitted: A pretty girl having a meal. It doesn't come across so well on camera but her back legs have the prettiest black and white striping. I've seen this type of mosquito around alot since I've moved and was wondering what species it was. Also a neat beetle I saw on a leaf, and was also wondering about. Location is [removed] (please remove location)

The mosquito is one in the genus Aedes, and looks like Aedes aegypti, the yellow fever mosquito. As mosquitoes go, Aedes species are one of the larger vectors for disease, and although most of those diseases are not super common in the US, you should exercise caution whenever possible and not let them bite you if you can help it. Still, they are very pretty, and I love their white striping!

The beetle is a harmless spotted cucumber beetle :)

Been actually editing my photos lately and gotten more comfortable with it, so I’m going back to old pics. These are some I took of a cucumber beetle in my flower patch
