A Pointed Ciliate Blue (Anthene lycaenina) spotted at Springleaf Park Connector, Singapore on 14 Dec 2024. A moderately rare butterfly, and I usually have to check the field guide to identify the butterflies in this family (the Blues).
On iNaturalist [ https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/255061501 ].
Two cocoons of the Georgia mason bee (Osmia georgica) bejeweled with bright orange frass and leftover pollen grains, and separated by a layer of chewed leaves. Fresh from my insect hotel and likely a day or two away from emerging. Males will come out first and wait, very impatiently, for the females to arrive. #InsectHotel #BeeHotel #bees #hymenoptera #insects #pollen

Just baking the insect hotel, as one does, to kill any dermestid beetles, book lice, and mites that are hiding in the cracks after the bee and wasp cocoons have been removed. #BeeHotel #InsectHotel #bees #wasps #hymenoptera #insects #pollinators #entomology
#BREAKING: the witch hazel flowers are fully unfurled. These flies are taking advantage—I was surprised to see them out and about!

I’ve been doing some paring down because I ended up with some tiny annoying bugs on the sarracenia. It might be two kinds actually.
Do you remember what kind of pesticide you used on your white dots?
