I wasn't fast enough to get photos, but I saw a pair of indigo buntings today. They aren't common at all here. Here's a stock photo in place of the one I didn't get.

I just watched a 9 plus minute video on isopods. I’m so fascinated by these creatures. A breeder I know carries some of these varieties. I’m king of keeping a few as pets.

Just so everyone knows, I don't have time to look these little critters up, and besides, I'm taking my time stroking your egos (because you have this info floating around in your heads). So, if you can ID these little red bugs, I'd greatly appreciate...
