Found this bug on the side of I-95 above Orlando, lots of flowers on the ramps leading to the freeway and most have easy safe access !!!

Comments welcome and much appreciated

Lance they are frustrating to find and we do look for them. Heat of summer seems to be the best time.

One clue to look for is places with flowers but no pesticides .....

Love the sharpness and the pollen all over the bug. The colours look great Al.
