Small stuff

Insects and flowers, whatever catches my eye.

The usually white Kousa dogwood, ヤマボウシ can be pink as well

It was still April when I saw the first dragonfly of the year. It seems to be Ooitotombo, オオイトトンボ

And its new born

Along a narrow path, where few people go: A swarm of bees, I think Western Honey Bee セイヨウミツバチ

Also early: Ookinokomushi Mushroom Beetle, オオキノコムシ

Indian Red Admiral, アカタテハ

Painted Lady, ヒメアカタテハ

Shiokaratombo, シオカラトンボ  

A stinkbug called Ushikamemushi, ウシカメムシ (Alcimocoris japonensis)

Ushi means cow. Maybe because it's got horns
