Under a flower, An Assassin Bug has captured a Potter Wasp and is using its proboscis to inject venom into it.

#InsectSaturday #Nature #Insects #InsectPhotography #PhonePhotography

Under a flower with many white slender petals and a yellow core, are two insects, one in the grasp of the other. A small tube is seen arising from the head of one insect and touching the body of the other.  Blurry background is mostly green, but there is a similar flower in the foreground.

Fly 1: "Hey guys. What ya doing?"

Fly 2: "Oh. Hi Gary. You found us..." *side whisper* "What's he doing here?"

Fly 3: *shoulder shrug and an I-don't-know-don't-blame-me look*

Fly 1: "Can I join you?"

Fly 2: "Ah, sure."

Fly 3 (muttering): "Ugh. Great."

#InsectSaturday #InsektenSamstag #photo #nature #dragonfly #NewMexico

A broad tailed dragonfly perches on a bare, angled stalk with transparent, veined wings canted forward; the tail is deep carmine at the end shaded to rose next to the thorax (which has a slight purple tint.) The large compound eyes are such a deep red as to appear brown. Fairly uniform greenish yellow background.

We had a little visitor in our garden today.
#insects #insectsaturday #dragonfly #garden #insektensamstag

A photograph of a brown and yellow dragonfly sitting on a branch in front of a bush. It's tail is rather flat at the back.
I saw two flying around out of the corner of my eye and thought they were two massive hornets for a second.
After reading up on them I learned that they catch and eat insects in flight.
