  • Red goldenrod aphids (Uroleucon nigrotuberculatum) feed on an Early Sunflower (Heliopsis helianthoides). Early-season aphids are generally wingless and don’t lay eggs; instead, they live-birth female nymphs (as seen here), who may also be already pregnant - without male involvement. <br />
Winged females usually develop later in the season, making it easier for them to travel to new plants. In addition, autumn brings on a phase of sexual reproduction, which produces eggs that survive the winter.

  • The subtle color variations of different plant fibers create a striped design as bald-faced hornets (Dolichovespula maculata) build up their nest. This wasp has a bolus of chewed pulp under its "chin" which it feeds through its mandibles, squeezing and forming it onto an existing paper edge.
