7-14 spotted cucumber beetle

Pickings were rather slim this morning - Only things that crossed my path were an armadillo and small squirrel - of course I was trying to better my 5K time so I couldn't stop and look for the little guys. Found him on the way back home - had never seen one of these before. My, the things I'm learning.

Beautiful focus! I love how he's surrounded by the protective greenery.

Great shot

He's new to me too - he looks very pretty surrounded by all that greenery. Lovely close up and focus.

What a wonderful shot. I love the bit of yellow in the middle of all those strong greens.

Wow great find, cool bug, wonderful light.

I think these are pretty little insects! I would love to see an armadillo! I've only seen them in the next county and they were on the side of the road.
