Insects
Pollinators and other insects, even “pests” like asparagus beetles, are interesting and important garden residents. I am amazed by the extraordinary diversity of insects within my own garden including beetles, bees, flies and wasps. My challenge is to photograph and identify them. (Feel free to contact me if you can help with identification!)
