otterXAnts are amazing!
Takako 🐀I spotted two native ladybugs on my lemon tree today! I hope they eat all the scale bugs on it!
Siriogot places to be!
Good news. A native lady bug is on my lemon tree—a scale bug buffet!
Peppa the paperWasp was doing this yesterday—blowing a droplet of apple juice right out of her mouth and sucking it back in—several times. It was fascinating to see. I assume it was enjoyable to her?
(Benign BGM added for an effect)
The paperWasp I took in yesterday can’t seem to fly. I let her be outside on the jasmine plant for a while, but she appeared eager to come back to her safe container. So, I took her back inside. There are too many birds here (because I offer a few cups of birdseeds) and not safe for a disabled insects.
Anyway, she just ate some apple and went to rest on begonia flower. 🌺🐝
A teeny leafhopper by the front door. Went for an afternoon hike, and when we returned, the hopper was still there. 🤍🥹
Some paperWasps drink from the droplets on the broad leaves as soon as I water my flowerbed for this reason. They know it’s the cleanest water. 💚💧🐝✨
