Saw this guy at the farm today. Didn't have my camera so I had to use my cell phone. He was about 3" long.
Nice! I wouldn't tangle with a 3 inch spider.

IMO it is good to experiment. I hope you did not mind my little challenge. I find that also with a lot of photos in B&W - they do indeed evoke different moods. And like Archie, I like both of your versions as well.

It turns out that they are great to have in the garden, as their larvae eat aphids! Very colourful!

We did have this one yesterday. It was 24 above this morning, so that may have thinned the herd a bit. Terry --Eating eggs and lovin em.ߘ

Macroramphosis Senior Member More info | Oct 15, 2018 07:16 | #1227 I think this is a Western Conifer Seed bug, rather than a stinkbug. Close cousins, and still very pretty!

Macroramphosis Senior Member More info | Oct 15, 2018 07:19 | #1228 A couple from the weekend. First one is a small potter wasp, Ancistrocerus auctus, looking for caterpillars to paralyse and take back to its nest for the grubs to eat when they hatch next spring.
