My Bug Finds

field notes from the backyard & beyond

Closeup of a ladybug on a leaf

Ladybug

Found in the garden

This little red beetle has black spots and is a gardener's best friend. Did you know one ladybug can eat thousands of aphids in its lifetime?

A blue morpho butterfly resting on a green leaf

Blue Morpho Butterfly

Spotted on a leaf

Bright shimmery blue wings — and the color isn't from paint! Tiny scales on their wings bend the light, which is why they sparkle like jewels in the sun.

A black and yellow monarch caterpillar on a plant stem

Monarch Caterpillar

On milkweed

Striped yellow, black, and white. This little crawler will turn into a beautiful Monarch butterfly. Watch closely — the change takes about two weeks!
