My almost invisible summer eyebrows ✨😏🌞

🌸💮🌺🌻🥰🌼🌲🌳

🌼🙃🌺 Just a few flowers for you! ✨🌿

✨ Let them fly away and enjoy ✨

Beautiful shiny hoverfly!✨🐝

I suspect it is a Melanostoma species. Pretty sure a male.

The distance between the eyes of hoverflies is always narrower in males than in females.👀

Their larvae eat aphids and the adults feed on flower nectar and pollen.🌺🌼🌸

📊 Around 48,000 animal species have been identified in Germany, including over 33,000 insect species. Insects make up around 70 percent of all animal species in Germany.

If insects can feel joy, what a wonderful world.🌺🐝

At least there are experiments that suggest something like fun in insects. For example, bumblebees like to play bumblebee ball.🏀🐝

But there are also observations in many other animal species.🐟🐸🐌🐎🦜

I like the idea of ​​happy insects buzzing around.

Common flesh fly 🥩
(Sarcophaga species)

It is almost impossible to tell the species apart by their outward appearance, and many can only be reliably identified by microscopic examination of the males' genitals.🔬🔍

In Germany, the gray flesh fly (Sarcophaga carnaria) is particularly common. There are various reports on the diet of adult flies from flower nectar, honeydew and the fluids that form on dung and carrion. The different information may be due to the difficulty in identifying the species. There is also different information about the larvae. Some species lay the larvae on carcasses and dung, others on earthworm entrances, and the parasitic larvae then crawl into the earthworm to develop inside. Some species use snails and other animals as hosts.🐌

Humans can also be infected by some species, such as Sarcophaga barbata. The human larval infestation is called myasis and occurs mainly in tropical or subtropical regions.🤕

Sleeping in the summer is a challenge.😴🔥 Last night only 2.5 hours and tonight it will be even less. Way too warm! 🥵 And that one fly...😶🦟

🤔... "Street Heart" 🌺
Because... 🤔... it's.. a way! 😢

Mammalian Skin 🐒🌞

🐞🌿 A ladybug nymph fell on my hand and clung to it tightly. 😅🤷‍♂️ I let it climb into a bush. Baby saved! 🤗
