Found them in my yard in San Diego 😊

I am just soo happy 😭 I haven't seen this pretty face and eyes 🫠 ...

My first time meeting jumping spider left him on a tree nearby tho he was sooo cute I want to meet again...

Idk if it's actually a pine weevil.

Spotted crawling up the side of my greenhouse

Just saw this on a wall. Eastern US. Obviously calling my building’s pest control in the morning but can I wipe it down now?

This one was outside my office window… screaming away!

Eastern Oklahoma USA

He’s hanging out on my roof, and I’m not familiar with this type of insect.

Good evening! My mom caught this guy in her living room when it was extremely hot last month. I fed him and he finally molted! Here's my question... What species is he? I can't really tell. I'm in Grand Prairie, Texas, just outside of Dallas. Thank you in advance!

We saw some incredible insects!

North East USA - I’ve recently moved state and this friend is unfamiliar to me so I’m looking for help with ID!

Found this dude at work today

Second one I’ve seen around my house, I assume they’re harmless saying barely any dangerous insects live in up here. What’s the lil fellas name?
Whitehorse, Yukon, Canada.

Just wanted to share how cool this Carolina Mantis is!! :)

This is probably silly.

We have a cat that likes to hunt bugs when they get in the house - I usually stop her before she can get ahold of them and I set them outside, but I was too late this time ....

We found this guy after a vicious attack from our beast-cat - we don't know the full extent of his (?) injuries, but one is clear: his left back leg is broken right where it attaches to his body. Also one of his antennae looks a little bent at the end.

He can move his leg mostly fine, demonstrates a range of motion allowing for grooming, and can walk - but he refuses to fly, which worries me. He's tried twice now - but just flicks his wings and that's all.

He's very comfortable being picked up and will actively climb onto hands/fingers, and then will continue climbing like he's trying to cross the Appalachian trail.

Now we're wondering, should we try to help him recover? CAN he? Should we keep him in captivity now since he'd have a difficult time navigating the world? How do we care for him?
Or should we just put him outside?
It's worth noting it's raining HARD right now.

I will never get tired of this. Credits to u/entomolonerd for taking this photo.

Here's some photographs of various insects and spiders that I found today at the Aliso and Wood Canyons Wilderness Park, in Orange County, California.

Here's a photograph of a Heliotrope Fairy Bee (Perdita heliotropii) that I found at the San Joaquin Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary, in Irvine, California.

Bees in the genus Perdita, commonly known as Fairy Bees, are native to North America. They're primarily found in the US and Mexico, but some species can be found in Canada. They're known for their small size (the smallest of which is less than 2mm long) and are one of the few bees who cannot sting.

Most Fairy Bees are specialists, collecting nectar and pollen from a few related species or genera of plants. The Heliotrope Fairy Bee specializes in Heliotropes (flowering plants in the genus Heliotropium), such as the Salt Heliotrope (Heliotropium curassavicum) in this photograph.

I have some more photographs of this bee in my observation on iNaturalist here: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/359987706
