Kumamoto 5, last insects and flowers

I picked up a half-drowned bug that was on its back doing the beetle shake in an outside sink, thinking this is probably a stinkbug and the bad smell will stay in my nose for the rest of the day. Guess my surprise when I turned it over and saw these beautiful colors!


Red-striped Stink bug, アカスジキンカメムシ  Poecilocoris Lewisii





It flew off way too soon



Another victim of that sink: Horned Dung beetle ツノコガネ  Liatongus phanaeoides





Not in the sink, but more or less underneath: Giant Scarab Beetle, オオセンチコガネ  Phelotrupes auratus


I will be checking outdoor toilet sinks for a while now 😁

Bird Vetch, クサフジ  Vicia cracca



Some kind of Lathyrus maybe aureus????



Lycoris, キツネノカミソリ  Lycoris sanguinea



Leopard Lily, ヒオウギ  Iris domestica
