I'm seeing lots of large bees right now. I'm attempting cell phone shots with no zoom, so I've bumped into quite a few bees and the large ones are very forgiving. This is a male eastern carpenter bee on a horsemint flower. #bees 🐝🌿 #pollinators #bugsky #insects #ECK #nature #wildlife #nativeplants

Well, this was a real treat this afternoon as I found this Periplacis menander #butterfly outside my kitchen window. A new species for @casabentbill.bsky.social (and for me). These have a wide range from Mexico to southern Brazil, but they aren't common. #lepidoptera #costarica #butterflies #bugsky

A vibrant blue and black butterfly rests with wings open on a bright green leaf, showing iridescent patterns and delicate details.

A beautiful Southern Hawker in perfect profile for #MacroMonday Wishing you all a great start to the week! 🫶 #MinimalMonday #BugSky #Insects #Dragonfly #photography #nature #ECK

A close-up of a blue-green Southern Hawker clinging vertically, head upwards, to a thorny rose branch. Its body displays a bright, light-green pattern on the thorax and head, as well as blue-green spots on the long, dark abdomen. The transparent wings are slightly outstretched. A blurred rose petal can be seen at the left-hand edge of the picture; the background is a white house wall.

Possibly the most perfect spider photo I’ve ever taken. ❤️ Crab spider on ‘Mercury rising’ tickseed. 🕷️ #bugsky #invertebrates #nativeplants 🌱

A beautiful white crab spider with golden brown markings rests on a vibrant purple-red coreopsis bloom awaiting a meal. It is in a pose that looks like zen meditation.

Big girl, you are beautiful 🐝 #insects #bugsky

A large, very yellow bumblebee, maybe a queen Bombus pensylvanicus. She is lifting off from a spotted bee balm flower.
