On today’s walk I met up with the Leaf-footed Bug again — quite likely, the same curious specimen I saw a couple of days previous. I am not sure why I find this creature so endearing — perhaps because, despite its somewhat intimidating size (for a bug, that is), it is a harmless vegetarian like myself. Still, its vignette does convey a slight bit of dread. The Muscadine leaf in the photo, though, is in much more danger than the photographer.
