Another season of milkweed is coming to a close. My once fragrant monarch magnets are turning to seed and pretty soon the puffs will explode. It was about this time last year that I was lucky enough to find a chrysalis and watch it turn into a monarch.
|
As I was snooping around the fading weeks the other day, hoping to get lucky again, I came across a small herd of strange bugs - which I learned are milkweed bugs, They have a black heart outlined in red on their little backs and they don't really do much except mate, eat milkweed, lay eggs and die.
|
In researching them online I discovered there's a similar-looking bug called a "false milkweed bug." How dumb is that, to have a bug that looks enough like a milkweed bug that it could be mistaken for one but instead of getting its own name, it's name is basically "not a milkweed bug."
|
Scientists, not always cool. Especially those who give out dumb names to bugs. They need to seek professional help - from creative writers.

Dropped off at an abandoned baseball clubhouse on a scorching hot day clueless on what to do and where to go. Cigarette butts and trash littering the potential beauty this place can offer. Blindlessly wandering around the building, soon to follow a purple-haired lady inside who I had recognized from before, just to see how the place was littered in scrap and timeless relics dating back to 30 years ago.
