Sap Sucker

Living in the forest we find the weirdest bugs at times. I captured this one on the window screen in our bathroom. After photographing it on an old fish fossil I did a Google image search of it before setting it free into the forest. I found out that it is a Western Conifer Seed Bug (WCSB). They feed on the sap of young conifer cones as the cone is developing. Talk about a specialized bug. What a strict diet! This one was photographed with my Canon EOS 7D MkII camera and a Tamron 180mm lens in natural light from a window. God's blessings upon your week, chris #TeamCanon, #WithMyTamron
