June Bug

ByMaria

I am not really sure what the name of this insect but one of my garden friends call it “june bug”. I was surprised to see it on my patch of green onions as if it just wants to cling there.

I guess, not spraying pesticides or insecticides helps in the population of uninvited guests in the garden like the catterpillar I saw yesterday in the passion flower plant.

    I seldom see dragonfly so when I see one is a real treat. I’m glad I always carry my small camera, you’ll never know when you can see something interesting to capture. When I was young, my cousins and I are always trying to capture dragonflies and damselflies even. But I noticed when I went…
