Leaf-Footed Pine Seed Bug Addition

in nature •  6 years ago 

Last week I did a post on Leaf-footed Pine Seed Bug Nymphs which can be seen here: https://steemit.com/nature/@whatisnew/leaf-footed-pine-seed-bug

As I reminder, here is one of the photos of the nymphs.

And look what I found a couple of days ago!

This is a teenager.

And here is the adult.

How cool is that? It was as if they were just waiting for me.

    Great photos of them! Are they harmful to the tree?

      Thanks Melinda! They do not do any harm to the tree however, they can make pine cones seedless.

              There you go again...making my head swell with your compliments. : )
              I looked over there and I can't even see the photo. I could barely see the lady bug. That sure is a clever idea.

                We better watch that head swelling, for some reason
                I thought of those bobble heads and the giant head
                guys on star trek lol

                I had to right click those bugs and open in another window
                then click again to zoom it.

                  Ah, the good 'ole bobble heads. I thought of a migraine after I wrote it.
