I took this photo in my backyard on Sunday and I don't know what kind of bug that is. I didn't feel like looking it up, I'm sure someone out there knows what it is.

About Me
- John Theberge
- I live in Lewiston, Maine and have for most of my life. I've always had an interest in nature; as a kid I read books by Edwin Way Teal, Rachael Carson, among others, and I used to love studying the Golden Nature Guides. When I got into photography it was natural for me to take pictures of the natural world. A few years ago I got into kayaking and that allowed me to get to places I would never be able to by hiking and of course this gives me more photography oppurtunities. I realized years ago you don't have to travel to exotic locations to get good photographs. I have to admit I'm lucky to be living in a beautiful state with a lot of natural diversity, but I've taken good pictures right in my own back yard and neighborhood.

Ha Ha!! That's one of those bugs I hate John...I'll take a spider over that thing any day! I have no idea what it is....maybe I'll get a wild hair and look it up but I don't feel much like it either!!! Ha Ha!!
Very (ah-choo) pretty!
Looks like kind of a Borer to me, but am not sure.
Great capture though!
Cheers, Klaus
I am not sure but it is an interesting bug.
It's a funny looking bug, whatever it is! the goldenrod is beautiful...together a lovely shot!
Nice pic John. It looks like a Crane Fly. Do some Googling and see if it matches ..
Your goldenrod is hanging in well. Have you had these frosts the past week or so? Ours have made just about all the foliage (except for the maples) pretty drab.
