I overwintered a single swallowtail chrysalis after finding a chonky caterpillar making a run for it in the alleyway. Here is the result 8 months later

I think female mealybugs look kind of like fuzzy trilobites

Three #photos today. Saw this pipevine #swallowtail flittering around the backyard and eventually it zeroed in on the #pipevine I planted earlier this spring just for this species (its host plant). Captured it alighting on it then depositing a clutch of #eggs.

A stink bug, genus Megarrhamphus spotted in Kuala Kangsar, Perak, Malaysia on 7 April 2026. iNaturalist doesn't have many local observations of it, so I think it is an uncommon bug.

On iNaturalist [ inaturalist.org/observations/3… ].

"Here, we are not searching for luxury...
we are searching for a moment of sleep without fear,
for ground that doesn't sting us every time we come close.
We are tired of a war that never ends...
even the smallest creatures have turned against us."

Drama in the garden, with a bunch of freeloader flies (yes, that's a thing) taking advantage of a crab spider's kill on the milkweed. #Insects #Spiders #Nature #Milichiidae
