Milkweed Beetles

These aren't necessarily bad bugs, although they eat the milkweed pods (see yesterday's post). If there are too many of them, then you can get rid of some of them. I have 50 plants, so this batch isn't really a threat.

Oh my! What a gathering and perfectly dressed for Halloween

Wow, those wings look a little small for those bugs. As Jane mentioned, they do fit right in for Halloween. Great shot.

Oh my this is something so unusual to me, beautifully captured.
