Hunting... by aecasey

Hunting...

Not sure what this fellow is, but he's not visiting this flower for the pollen. I thought he looked rather harmless until I took a closer look at his front legs. Yikes! Since eldest likes insects, I thought this one made a nice addition.

Oh dear...looked him up. The Field Guide says it is a Jagged Ambush Bug, which is quite adept at killing bees. Rather like the bees...might go move this fellow to a less populated hunting ground. I am not seeing many bees on the morning glories...
Great macro capture!

Yes, yikes! But he does look rather lovely with these colours and that light.

Bit of an ugly guy - but a great capture all the same
