All I can add is a cute little purple caterpillar. I think it's a tobacco budworm, anybody know? Nice color anyway. #InsectThursday #bugs #gardening #PNW

I can only add more roses. I'm grateful to be able to enjoy them nearby in southeast Portland, Oregon. I caught these omw home from scavenging milkweed seeds in a local bioswale the other night. #RoseWednesday #roses #flowers

Just a Bumble bee (Bombus impatiens) doing his thing even as autumn is upon us Sadly this is for sure not an American Bumble Bee (Bombus pensylvanicus), as they are currently functionally extinct in their namesake state of PA Follow on IG in BIO Save the bees, save the world. #bees #savethebees

Be rude not to take a photo of a seasonal star, the Ivy #bee. This time of year it's clear to see why Ivy's so important, it's buzzing with bees, flies, and wasps. #MacroMonday #wildlifefrommywindow #invertebrates #UKWildlife

A squre photo that is a close up of an Ivy Bee on a cluster of Ivy flowers. Each ivy flower is like an icecream cone of green on the end of a pale green stalk, radiating from the ivy stem. Eacy flower is about the size of the little bees head. The bee is drinking from one flower with it's antennae pointed downwards. It has large black eyes, with an fuzzy orange face, and very pale hairs being its eye. The thorax is covered in short orange hairs, and the abdomen is striped with black and pale yellow.

Good #FridayFlowers beeps. (Bee-loving peeps.) True confession: I've been mislabeling this flower for years as "choriopsis". Which is not only the wrong flower, it's the wrong spelling! #Flowers This is actually sulfur cosmos, not coreopsis. With a sleepy bee. 🙄🙃✌️🐝

Good Afternoon Bluesky Folks! My second Post of the day features a beautiful picture of a ivy Bee on some Clover flower captured on my Canon EOS R50! #NaturePhotography #PhotographersOfBlueSky #NatureLover #WildlifePhotography #mobilephotography #Insects #Bugsky

The photograph features a detailed macro close-up of a bee—resembling an Ivy Bee (Colletes hederae)—perched on a starburst-like cluster of green ivy flower buds.
The Bee: Clinging to the right side of the cluster, the bee has a fuzzy, golden-brown thorax and an abdomen patterned with crisp, alternating bands of bright yellow and black. Its translucent wings rest along its side as its legs grip the flower bud.
The Plant: The ivy cluster radiates outward in an umbel, made up of small, cup-shaped green flower buds on dusty-green stalks. Each bud features a small, pointed central tip.
Background: Set against a dark, soft-focus background of deep green leaves, the dark backdrop brings out the vivid contrast and fine textures of the bee and plant.

I'm still trying to document all of the native bees that show up in my yard, but I ran across a western honeybee that was so focused on it's work that it let me take a shot with no zoom. #macro #honeybees #pollinators #bugsky #nature #bees #inverts #insects #ECK 🐝

#BlueskyArtShow #Lights Light exhibit at Sensorio in Paso Robles, California. The hills are covered with thousands of solar-powered lights that shift in colors. sensoriopaso.com #ECK #PasoRobles #WestCoastKin #Sensorio #LightExhibition

It is just after dusk and the thousands of colored lights are illuminated. They cover the rolling hills with many different colors, giving the effect of patches of glowing wildflowers. The golfball sized lights are on a stem, so if it is breezy, they will sway with the breeze. They are placed close together to maximize the color and effect. Not seen at night are the scattered small solar panels placed throughout the exhibit. There are paths through the light, so visitors can walk through the fields. Sensorio has added other light exhibits as well, but this is my favorite. Located in Paso Robles, California as a permanent display.

#Stunday After you hike up the trail to Valencia Peak in Montaña De Oro State Park, you are rewarded with this view to enjoy while you having a snack. #ECK #Hiking #ValenciaPeak #MontañaDeOro #Photography #LandscapePhotography #WestCoastKin #MorroBay #View #Picnic

A wooden picnic table stands on the rocky peak of Valencia Peak, Montaña De Oro State Park, California. The soil and rocks are nearly white in color, showing stratification in the portions that poke above the dirt. Beyond the peak are green mountains with clouds hovering overhead producing wonderful atmosphere and lighting. Way in the distance you can barely make out Morro Bay and Morro Rock (far left side of the frame, two-thirds up from the bottom).
