3 More Bugs - The Count is Up to 17

These were taken at the Geauga County Fair, around the Metroparks cabin. The cabin is landscaped with native plants to attract beneficial insects. Did not see a single butterfly, though.


Here's a grasshopper hiding in a flower head. Not a great shot, but he stayed there long enough for me to fumble around with the camera.




A bright red dragonfly behind the cabin. Dragonflies hold their wings flat, damselflies hold them upright - one more thing learned from the Bug Project.


Butterfly?  Looks too fuzzy, however, don't moths have feathery antennae?



Smooth antennae. Hmmm.
