@silentlyclicking.bsky.socialMy day was filled with photography and I could not be happier. I even met a new friend at the park! Last one for today. I saw them grab the butterfly in flight, I tried to get a shot but they were flying too erratically. Now for dinner, bath, bed in that order. GN!!

@phazonharbinger.bsky.socialPhrynichus orientalis, sometimes called the Giant Cave Whip Spiders which is a bit of a mouthful. Tailless whip scorpions/spiders are neither, they belong to their own order among arachnids, Amblypygi. #macro #bugsky #spiders #scorpion #arachnids

@wearegonnafindout.bsky.socialOr how about this goldenrod? Isn't it enticing? Come taste it. Come right on down.
@wearegonnafindout.bsky.socialThis is a late boneset plant blooming. Doesn't it look delicious? Wouldn't you little bees and flower flies like to take a sip?

@ne-bugs-and-beasts.bsky.socialDug through the breeding bin and uncovered these lively Western Hercules beetle larvae. As this species can take up to 2 years to pupate. They will be retained for future breeding efforts.

@jtkindt.bsky.socialFor the fifth of #arachtober, a Xysticus crab spider defending my basil plant like a little pit bull. (8/30/26)
@wordsoup.bsky.socialNot normally a fan of hover flies (partly cause when I see them from a distance I think they're bees, then realize they're not), but I like the way this pic of a drone fly feeding on a thistle I took on Friday came out. #ColorADay #PinkMon #MacroMonday #bugsky #insects #nature #photography
@earlgreygory.bsky.socialStarting a new insect, this is a June Beetle, found in July, weirdly enough.

@bugeric.bsky.socialFor #Arachtober the 4th, a large fishing spider on a wall above a shallow pool at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum west of Tucson, Arizona, USA. Poor thing is missing two legs, but is a mom(see baby in lower right. #bugsky #bugwatching #spiders #arachids
@minifauna.bsky.sociala very odd little find, nowhere near the UV lights (or any lights - this is an old disused lantern).
funereal duskywing (Erynnis funeralis)
lifer, I'm pretty sure
@minifauna.bsky.socialgreen was apparently the color of the evening!
