Bugs in my garden.

It’s a daily activity to walk in the garden, for everyone who has a garden where we plant both flowering and fruit trees. It’s then that when writing about this subject of bugs many feel identified with the insects that we can find day by day in our garden.

Besides the fact that many times I have encountered some spiders that I had never paid attention to before, now I’m encountering other critters.

I was in my garden trying to fix some plants on the countertops, so that the cats can't have enough space to climb them and destroy them, and during one of those arrangements this caterpillar fell to the ground from one of the plants. I don't know what species of butterfly it belongs to. I also have no idea if its species belongs to what I think is a caterpillar.

I took pictures of it but this caterpillar got dirty when it fell to the ground because the garbage I was picking up got right underneath it and while trying to get out of it, it got soaked in dust.

Then later, moving a concrete pot from one place to another with the help of a friend, I saw a brightly colored image that appeared when I moved the pot. At first I thought it was a crawling insect but I immediately realized that it doesn’t walk or crawl.

I didn't want to touch it but I did see that through its outer wall you could see lines of black interspersed with this other orange color. I immediately thought it was a Monarch butterfly chrysalis… I'm not quite sure, but it is as beautiful in its colors as the Monarch is.

After we moved the pot I took the chrysalis with a leaf and placed it under the pot in the same way I found it, but I put some dry leaves on it because if my dear cat Meme notices this beautiful color he will most likely stick his paw underneath and pull it out of its place.

Then I remembered that on another day I found a crawling insect on my path. It's like some kind of brown worm. I think it's a caterpillar that I've never seen before. I don't know which insect it is. I've also set it free since I can't destroy something that I don't even know what species it belongs to.

What is certain is that each one of them was left free to develop into its evolutionary forms… but far from me. I don't know if the birds saw these species or if they were able to develop later.

So I decided to bring them here in photos and to look for a community where I could publish my garden critters and I remembered the hivegarden community that @simplymike once invited me to join, so I did.

Thanks to all of my readers for being here and a special thank you to those of you who can comment on the names of these critters, if you manage to recognize them.

The photographs are my own taken with my Redmi note 9 phone.
