Monsters. Just one of my weird drawings from 2010.

My buddy C-7 (Coccinella septempunctata) 🐞🌞

The sloth enjoyed a sunny Sunday along with Mother Nature! 🌞🌼🐝 ⠀

🏨🐜 News from the insect hotel:


Oops! Post #404! Time for a bug report! That's my bud, the brown marmorated stink bug (Halyomorpha halys). Since 2011, this species has been detected in Germany and comes originally from East Asia. They are also found in North and South America. Often on house walls, they sometimes get lost inside. They can't survive the winter in warm houses, so I left it free.🕊

Crane fly,
Tipula sp.❤
(05/2003 in Oberursel, Germany)

Isn't it beautiful?😍 Crane flies are completely harmless.😁 Many believe they are huge mosquitoes.😆 Their mandibles are only suitable for absorbing water and nectar and can't penetrate through the skin.☝ What can end fatally, however, is to get the giggles from people panicking around the whole apartment.😂🙈🙉🙊




Do you see behind the wings these small stems with the thickening at the end? In evolutionary terms, these are reduced wings and serve as orientation. They are called halteres and are a fascinating development of Mother Nature. Many other flying insects have that too. Simply said, the halteres swing through the wing movements, and as the animal changes direction, the vibration also changes.💡

You can not prevent: Hitch and Toni are doing it all night long. What are you thinking about tonight? Insects? 🐜🕷 I made some comics about a year ago. They are pretty bad, partly sexist, politically incorrect and often doesn't make any sense. Main character is Hitch, the cockroach - with a foot as a face. You'll certainly like it.
Just releasing @kissmycockroach !

The Travel Bug is a painter, so I gave him some colors. Good journey, little friend! 🐞🎨🗻🗺

The Travel Bug. One of my doodles from 2012.
I didn't really think about it, but just let my mood run wild. The doodles arose without thoroughness. I like to do that to create absurd scurrility.
I have a lot such scribbles, a few thousand. They live a miserable existence, nobody looks at them. You are the first to see them.

🌸🚁 Marmalade hoverfly (male),
Episyrphus balteatus
(06/2019 in Oberursel, Germany)

Marmalade hoverflies always follow the nice weather! 🌞 This species belongs to the migratory insects and forms dense seasonal swarms. In autumn, these travel from Central Europe to the Mediterranean region (vice versa in spring). The hoverflies cross the passes of the low mountain ranges, the Pyrenees and the Alps! 👍🐝

My new roommate "Piñata DeBicho"! 🤗
It's a conehead mantis (Empusa pennata).
But you shouldn't believe everything. ☝
There is also some evidence that it comes from the planet Remulak! 👾🚀
Who cares! Just let the little conqueror march a bit! 😍
