lfiskA Tree Cricket seems to be inspecting my crappy storm door caulk job...
Colin PurringtonTree cricket nymph on the underside of a fig leaf. Per Nancy Collins on iNaturalist, either Oecanthus niveus or Oecanthus exclamationis, but too young for diagnostic markings to be present. She was able to confirm that it's adorable, however. #insect #entomology #nature #MacroPhotography #nymph #TreeCricket #orthoptera
Exciting news: a grass-carrying wasp (Isodontia sp.) has moved into the observation panel at my insect hotel. The shiny yellow object on the right is the wasp egg. The tree crickets are all alive but paralyzed. #wasps #insects #entomology #TreeCricket #nature #BeeHotel #InsectHotel #isodontia #sphecidae
