Time for something a little different. This is a Striped Horse Fly. I guess it's confused .. this was the top of my car on a very hot and humid day.

Saddlebags?
This is another skimmer .. a Red Saddlebags. This is a new one for me. I am sure I have seen one before, but I do not recall photographing one. I love the wings.

They Are Back
Check out this female Widow skimmer. I love dragonflies. They are so cool and when you get the photo just right, you can see amazing details in their wings and head. This one is not in perfect focus, but I still was happy to see one. It is that time of year.

Resting Insect
I enjoy it when I capture an expected surprise in a photo. I was taking a few photos of the last of the seasonal wild flowers then when I checked out the phtoos, I saw this Alfalfa Plant Bug. This pest caues a lot of damage to Alfalfa but I think I caught him taking a break.
