Jar Jar Bugs

This happened enough recently to make a post of it, don't get creeped out! Instead of squishing bugs, we try to catch them and put them back outside. It's a lot less messy, and the bugs can't be blamed for being lost, right? Plus I get to make new friends while they pose for pictures with me?

This tiny grasshopper was crawling on the blinds. Good thing we got it, because even when these things are outside, you can hear them pretty loudly at night. Last year there was one in the house and it made it nearly impossible to get any sleep!

Here's a cricket that was jumping around in the bathtub. I wonder if it wanted to take a shower?

This Dragonfly flew right into the car! We were trying to coax it toward the open window with the back of an umbrella, it eventually landed ON the umbrella. So we were able to carefully move it outside.
