Buggy Things

There were lots of creepy crawlers in the garden today. The Assassin bug that's the size of a 50 cent piece is still on patrol on the porch. The color in this picture does this moth no justice...it was the color of Campbell's tomato soup...

This fierce looking spider had built its nest in the lawn...I walked wide around it in case it had it's eye on me!

Then I got TOTALLY creeped out...look at the top of this trashcan....WHERE IS THE SNAKE THAT LEFT IT"S SKIN ON MY CAN!?!?!?!?!? Ew ew ew ew ew. I hate that it was probably watching me...and I will not be touching that can!!!

Is it wrong of me to be sort of gleeful that this rotten hornworm is infested with parasitic wasp larvae...is this some sort of karma, I wonder??

Is this not the most incredible shade of blue...Agapanthas, Lily of the Nile...

Look my Edamame worked!!

This isn't the best hummer picture by far, but what was cool was that this little guy was less than 3 feet from me as he sat down on the leaf and just looked at me...of course, I didn't have my camera then. I went in and came back out with it, and waited...he returned but was a little more skittish.

Nothing to say about this...I just like it.
