Please pardon my grimy, dirty hand but I'd been working in the garden!
Emilie found this interesting beetle the other day. Kinda cool wouldn't you say?!
Turns out this is a "Milkweed Leaf Beetle".
We have an area on the side lawn that has milkweed growing, which has been spreading over the last couple of years. Being the Monarch caterpillars only source of food, we've let them be and take over the area and in return hoping to attract them to our yard.
Seems like we're always finding some new or unusual critter out in the yard.
