I for one will not be resting peacefully knowing this bug is sharing the same bed. The second bug isn't nearly as scary. But I know all of you are made of sterner stuff or maybe it's just plain insensitivity you suffer from. Some minor plant surgery was required to rebuild the flower. The fella that snapped the shot cut off a little too much getting up close and personal with the beetle. I'm taking him out behind the shed and have that long delayed discussion.

Enjoy and your comments welcomed.

Nice markings on that bug, Wendell. You sure have a variety, and are getting nice close-ups.

Wonderful word play, Wendell.
Maybe you should open a Motel to compete with the Roach Motel.
Good photo work as well.

Well if this is part of your flower bed then yes it's bed bug and a very good shot of a bed bug too.The detail is superb and also in the flower too,plus very good composition too, Wendell.Plus the detail in that bed bug is so good you can even see your belly fluff on it feet.

A bud bug is better than a bed bug.

Quality not quantity.
