Two unknown bugs...

...but then most are unknown to me.

This first bug was quite difficult to capture as there was a light breeze that kept blowing him out of view. It did drop off enough for me to get a few shots to choose from, this being the best of the bunch.




I was about to leave for home when I felt something small hit my hand. I looked down and this next one was just sat there. I was able to get quite a few images.

The eye here looks OOF, but when I zoom in on the original it looks fine (ish).

Anyone have any comments on this :dunno

Seen #2 before...
not sure what its called. I think it looks just like a brown one we get down here in Florida. I wonder if mybe this one just molted and that cool green is fresh? MM

NICE PHOTOS, first beetle i think is a - viburnam beetle-Pyrrhalta viburni . hundreds of them destroyed a large shrub last spring.
2nd could be a species of shield bug, brian will probably know.

Good Captures there Col, nice background on the first shot.
Glad someone was able to identify them for you. ... Skippy
