LOL, a more accurate view of this small Anglewing butterfly, of it sitting on friend David's finger! For some reason, butterflies seem to like being on his hands : ) Seen on 22nd August in West Bragg Creek Provincial Park. Not sure if it's a Green Comma.

We saw this little beetle yesterday, south of Calgary, near Nanton, southern Alberta. It looked just like a Ladybug, but a bit larger and fatter, and no spots on the red. I looked at hundreds of Ladybug photos on Google last night, but couldn't find anything like this one. Maybe it's not a Ladybug after all?! Later: many thanks to Doug for the ID, Large Orange Ladybug (Anatis lecontei).

I felt so lucky to see another Police Car Moth when we spent all Thursday botanizing the Bentz Lake Natural Area (north of Calgary and west of Sundre). Perhaps unfortunate that its right wing tip is damaged, but it is still beautiful. It was resting on a branch and then friend David put his finger by it and the Moth climbed on to it. In large size (if you have time to take a peek), you can really see those feathery antennae (that belong to moths, not butterflies).
