Was wondering if anyone was interested in playing a Critter Game.The poster can either post their pic with no information except for where they found it and time of year; or if you don't have a pic, you have to give a few hints on the critter, any fact you may know about it.
To prove your naming is correct you can then post a link to where the pic is after a few guesses.

The winner then posts their question or picture.

Hope all Gardening Posters are interested...Butterflies are included.


Here is my 1st one. Found on a rose in September.

Any questions?

Well I'll be darned...

......even with a degree in Biology, I never knew that carpenter bees collected nectar and pollen! :eek: Just proves once again that one is never too old to learn something new!:D BTW, your photography is great!! :cool::cool::cool:
 
Yes it's hard to believe, but carpenter bee's re beneficial. To be so destructive boring into wood they do a lot of good, pollinating flowers and vegetables just like other bees.
