These distinctive large Milkweed Bugs, aka Onkopeltus fasciatus, have a coloration very similar to the Milkweed plant I photographed them on. When the buds are in flower, they are a bright orange - identical to the markings on the bugs. A perfect camouflage for their tryst! They are a hemipteran of the family Lygaeidae and are found throughout N.A.

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.
Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.
