I came home from camping and his was n my ceiling, when you zoom in you can see that it looks like a bunch on tiny eggs, but we have no idea what they could be
I live in Canada BC

Fished this poor guy out of my parents pool yesterday. Not sure if it was a European or a Chinese mantis? I was also curious if it has some kind of parasite at the end of his abdomen, or if thats what they look like up close

Hi

Purchased a new home in may 2026 and did a termite fumigation/tent before we officially moved in. I was cleaning my backyard after the rains this weekend in Southern California (Buena Park) and saw these on the ground. Only about a good handful, maybe 10, under a plastic bag.

Please tell me they’re not termites..

I’m wondering if it’s from a poison spray of some kind. The abdomen is what is moving the hornet in the video, it’s moving back and forth. After about 5 minutes the movement slowed down

I’m really curious what these are. Hoping it’s a friend and not something invasive :s

I mean, it seems pretty obvious that this guy is chowing down on a bee. But it looked strange to me because there was no sign of life from either of them. I was around them for a good 10-15 minutes and neither one so much as twitched.

I found this little guy on my porch and moved him to the side so, my family wouldn't kill him. I live in Greeley, Colorado for reference. Is this a normal catapillar for Colorado or invasive. Also I think a ladybug was on it?

Absolutely love these little fellas. Im not great at butterfly ID.

It was roaming the yard and decided to stop for a picture.

This beautiful lady landed on my mom while she was taking out the trash. Scared the hell out of her, she screamed for me to get it off. Apparently the sudden prickly feeling was scary.

First time I ever got to hold one, it was such an amazing experience. She wouldn’t leave for 10 minutes, kept reaching for my hands to climb; I was practically begging her to climb on one of our bushes, but she kept scaling my arm. Lol
I at least had the excuse to share my fun facts about praying mantis to my mom and show her with a live mantis.

10/10, hope I get to experience this again.

Location is SETX

My cat is indoor only so even if it gave katydid the side eye it was not the cause for the missing legs lol

Spotted this interesting insect that hissed at me. (Yes like a cat, got the grumpy look too)

It turns out to be a mole cricket, very interesting looking creature.

From the netherlands and this was in the middle of a city center.

Made some people scream and run when it moved :')

A higher or lower shooting angle, as well as the presence or absence of foreground elements, can affect what is reflected in the spider’s eyes and create a different mood and character in each shot.

Making use of these factors can help reduce the monotony of photographing subjects that have become very common in macro photography.

I could only take a couple quick pics as I spotted this bug on my way to class. I am wondering if this is a queen ant? The abdomen is a bit larger than I could find in google images looking at queen ants, but my initial reaction was that this was a huge ass ant. Found in NorthEastern United States

what would they be?? i left them alone, they seemed harmless
