July 29, 2010 Wings and Nectar


A Strange Little Bug...., originally uploaded by pictureapromise.

One of the bugs we saw on our hike in Buffalo River State Park in Minnesota was this interesting little guy. We thought at first perhaps it was a bee but I'm not so sure! If you have any idea what this little guy is called I would love your input!

Blessings~

    This is a great stop-action shot, allowing us to see its crystal-clear wing.
