cicadas are literally so baby
@rogueinkglitch submitted: A plethora of friends from Ohio! A lovely mantis who has made its home in the flower garden and is getting bigger by the day, one of the many cicadas who I have been rescuing from the pavement on my college campus, a caterpillar, an absolute stunning centipede, two of the many millipede found in a crevice in a rock face while hiking, a beetle of some kind, another beetle, and a very pretty moth who did a little wiggle dance then went to sleep on my arm for a while before I coaxed her back onto a leaf so I could go inside. Exact ids on any of these babies would be appreciated, all are from Ohio!
Side note you are one of my favorite blogs, most of my friends are not insect fans so I love sharing my finds here where I know a lot of people will enjoy them!
Thank you! I am very glad to receive and coo over any and all bug photos, so you've come to the right place.
In order: Chinese mantis, dog-day cicada, white-marked tussock moth caterpillar, NOT a centipede but rather a black and gold flat millipede, American giant millipede, would need a clearer photo but looks weevil-y?, not a beetle but a leaf-footed bug, and finally idk offhand. Brown mystery moth.
Thanks for sharing all your lovely friends!
I'm embracing my inner boomer and deadnaming Twitter.
I shan't ever call it x. The youngins won't make me.
I'll not bow to the woke mob that wants me to recognize Twitter as x!!!
When God created Twitter he called it Twitter and god doesn't make mistakes!!
