Oncopeltus fasciatus Nymphs (Large Milkweed Bug)

We have a few butterfly weed plants (Asclepias tuberosa) in our back yard. They are mostly done blooming and actually have mostly gone to seed. One of them is totally covered with these beautiful little nymphs of the large milkweed bug (Oncopeltus fasciatus).

I don’t have a lot to say about this photograph. As most people who know me know, I don’t really care for young people that much. These three, however, have been such good pals for a long while and I’ve enjoyed watching them grow from girls to young ladies. They spend much of there lives far apart, at their various colleges and it’s grand to see them together.
