2018 May 4 morning

 

   Annie Pang reports seeing another Cedar Hairstreak (a different individual from the one shown yesterday) at Gorge Park this morning.

 

   Nathan Fisk found this bug in Mill Hill Regional Park on May 3.  Thanks to Thomas Barbin for identifying it as a stilt bug of the Family Berytidae.  Thomas points out that it bears a close resemblance to the species Neoneides muticus.  However, Berytidae is a large family of somewhat similar insects, and it seems safest to leave this one at Family level.
