bugs' life

just sharing some pictures of insects we found at ate's garden last weekend.

it must be butterfly season!

ate's zinnias are attracting these beauties.

her pink single-petal zinnias are blooming profusely and

butterflies are gliding from one flower to another

sipping nectar.

my nephew actually caught several of them.

here's a black and blue one under the tico berry tree.

we then went to another corner of ate's garden and found these!
i wonder what's these bugs called.
lots of them living in the madre cacao tree.
creepy!

the most interesting insect we found that day is this.
it looks like a yellow lady bug.

look again! they're munching on leaves

and have those clear/plastic-like black dotted wings!

wonder what this one is called?

got any idea???
