Hello, Hivers. I'm back to write about some insects that I see on the leaves around us. I see them everywhere I go, including just outside our house.
I was outside my brother's house when I saw a big mosquito or məˈskēdō perched on a flower. I was shocked because the mosquito was big and perched on a flower that would fall off with just a gust of wind. I'm happy because I capture a photo of this mosquito before it flew away.
There are really a lot of mosquitoes here because the pond of our neighbour is near to the house of my brother. they put catfish there and then after how many months they will harvest, so I think the mosquitoes live there, plus my brother's Carabao, which is also surrounded by mosquitoes at night.
I noticed this yellow insect with a black circle on its body (Chlorophorus annularis) on the leaves of hagonoy, the grass we call it "hagonoy". I'm just thankful it didn't flee while I was capturing it; this insect was unfamiliar to me. Have you got anything like this? And where do you usually see it?
I've noticed these snails or coclea crawling on the ground outside our house for a long time. This was the first I noticed it while walking my son outside. I'm not sure where it came from, but I saw it on the path and picked it up to take it somewhere safe. The one where children cannot play.
So, while walking around looking for a place to put the snails, I noticed another snails crawling on the leaves of my sister-in-law's plant. They were not eating the leaves; they were simply crawling up. So I placed one of the snails beneath the flower, and I didn't see it again the next morning.
Another little creature I share here; I found it on the leaves of tapulanga. It has a mixture of black, orange and white. It's really small, but happy me because I captured it's landing on the leaf, hehe.
I discovered a sleeping spider (aranea), a type of insect that sleeps during the day and wakes up at night. The type whose only problem is food because finding and building a home is so simple for them, huhu! It seems like it would be nice to be a spider at times. Charrought! Haha.
This little butterfly I discovered early in the morning still had a little dew on it, so it couldn't fly, and it's wings hadn't opened yet, so I took more pictures of it, hehe. I like how the leaf on which it is perched is heart-shaped, mwhe.
It's a typical moth perched on a bean flower, but it's blurry because I was holding my toddler son when I took the photo, and he grabbed my cellphone, making it difficult for me to get a clear shot. When I got a little closer, he flew away.
That's it for today. I hope you like the photographs and story. I just wanted to say thankyou for your unwavering support, and I'll see you on my next blog. Peace and love, 🫶🏻.
All photos are mine.
I found all of the Insects just around of our place which is full of grass.
