Three kinds of Critters;

Today, for Eileen's "Saturday's critters"  I'd like to show two new critters for me and one familiar one for my friends.

*Carpenter Bee (Xylocopa)   "kuma-bachi 熊蜂 (bear bee)" *

I found this bee when I visited my husband's side's grave yard on Higan-day. The flower was offered to the next grave and the bee was enjoying the nectar. I explained why I need to take pictures and asked permission to the ancestors of the family. My husband said kind of common when young but this one was first finding to me♪

*Pantala flavescens (Globe Skimmer)，ウスバキトンボ*

A couple days ago, my husband brought home this skimmer saying this one was lying in front of back door looking a bit weak. I just took a photo and let her/him free. Staying on one of the tree in my yard for a while and flew away. Sorry frequent appearing in my blog.

*Damaster blaptoides (Japanese ground beetle)  pic. page *

I found this beetle in my yard when I was trying to bloom. I thought "yacky, cockroach!".  On second thought, I called my husband and let him see it to check and he knew it was one kind of beetle (to my surprise).  I rushed to get camera to take photos of new beetle to me. I wonder if you are familiar with this kind of beetle.
