wierd bug.jpg 

never saw this kind of bug before. He was hard to photograph because he kept standing up when I put the camera close to him.

It's a stink bug nymph, almost certainly a Green Stink Bug.

Thank you Marvin. I knew someone out there would know what it is.

I think they stand up as a prelude to spraying their stink juice......

Makes sense. He seemed to have a purpose.

You were right! I saw him again in the same area and he was green.

Looks like a type of shield bug. Is it time yet for some "deck art" Daugtherson? Up-date. I think we'll have to wait until next year to see the flowers on the Water Avens. Plenty of leaf growth, but no flowers. When it flowers, they'll be on here for you!

unfortunately it must be one of those bloom next year sorts. I can only say it will be even more spectaular with all this waiting.
