Graphocephala coccinea



For the end of a busy work week, another backyard insect for your viewing pleasure. Tomorrow, Megan and I are planning to take Weston on a little outing to Clear Creek Metropark, it should be fun. Catch you on the backside of that trip.

  4. Wow: What a colorful hopper.
    BTW: I was a Plum Crrek and got a big dragonfly flying, it wouldn't land.
