We had pulled to the side of road as per our usual for the third point of the morning. Whoa did this cat get lucky!
Then I looked further on the Antelope Horns (Asclepias asperula ssp capricornu) for more!
In fact there were all sizes of the Queens! I counted four on the plant.
From this I presume that the cat eats backwards. Hmmm, I would have thought they would have worked their way forward.
While examining the milkweed I found multiple of these half cocoons. No clue to its identity. And a little mite snuck in the photo too. 🙂
Mating Assassin Bugs (Reduviidae)!
Great camo, the walkingstick(Diapheromeridae)!
Another season done!
Wasn’t the worse count I have had in all my years of doing it. All 5 calls by Bobs were in the second site visits. We can hope next year will be better.
I have noticed other cats eating backwards. Funny
I think they eat the food and back away, so they don’t get stuck? Sort of like sweeping out a room haha
😄😄
A 4 cat day for the cat lady!
Wow, the photosynthesis article! Mind blown! 🤯
