Orange and Black striped beetle on a piece of grass

Orange and Black striped beetle on a piece of grass - caught it just right - opening wings to fly away

weird fly I found walking around on the cement - posed for a nice pic

tent caterpillars - found these on a bush - and only 1 nest - 1st time I had seen these on a bush, they are usually on trees, and usually there are a lot of them, not just 1 nest.....

The Washington state national treasure - giant banana slug

The Washington state bird - giant banana slug

black beetle  with orange spots and mites - good pic of the mite on its face(I think I'd react if I had a mite on my face...) 

black beetle  with orange spots and mites - accidentally flipped it over.... it did not like that  the jaws and the claws came out.....  I think this is the beetle that strips carcasses, so I'd not like to have it get too near my finger......  It looks a lot like the beetle I saw on a dead cat a long time ago(back in the 1980s) --- but I got no picture of that so its in the fuzzy depths of memory - so comparison is not exact.... also its the same type of beetle we saw awhile back at another park that was covered in mites that had been stepped on, and the guts were coming out(see an older blog post)

moth on the side of the house with an interesting brown and white pattern

an explosion of baby orb weaver spiderlings

a widow or false widow spider - somewhat similar looking to the brown widow, but not quite the same markings... very interesting pattern though... had web all around it, wish I could have gotten closer, but also some spiders of this type will bite(heard its about like a bee sting or worse, not gonna try and and out)

A plate armored millipede

lots of small red ants and their larva.... one of these got on me, and I had the creepy crawlies all night
