Cool bugs
I havent posted in a while so I though I would have a short fun post to get back into the swing of things.
Yeah, I have a page for cool bugs, it's my website.
Most of these are from my J1 trip to America, working in a summer camp last year.
Anyway, here they are:
Walking stick
One of my campers found this walking stick. Very cool.

Eastern Dobsonfly
Dont remember where I found this one but I think it was near some of the cabins.

Pipevine Swallowtail
This one had amazing colors in person and looked unreal in the sunlight. They seemed to be the most common butterfly around camp.

Tigerosa Aspersa (wolf spider)
I spotted this one around a camp site. There were so many of them although the campsite was beautiful there was so much cobwebs on the ground and many spiders like this one.

Dark grass hopper
Not very rare but still cool to see this darker version.
