Found dead in a spiderweb on a goldenrod plant a few weeks back and forgot to photograph and identify it
First bug I saw and probably the coolest one, too.
Had to go to Trader Joe's from Baltimore and checked the drive up to see what wooded areas I could check out for a little bioblitzing fun. Decided Glen Woods on the Towson University campus would be a cool stop. There was a light rain on and off and I already got my first tick crawling on me today. It was tiny too but I was too busy trying to get it off my arm and didn't stop take a picture.

Killed it after taking the pics. I don't know if it helps much, but I do what I can 😤
