Went bug hunting after the park with my daughter. We dug up an ant lion (put it back and watched it start its trap again), a pseudoscorpion, a spider that I've never seen before and some sort of flying insect unknown to me.

I had some fun trying to photograph Alypia octomaculata, the 8 spotted forester moth. This is a striking, day-flying moth whose larvae feed on Vitaceae plants. Unfortunately, I didn't get a decent shot with the hindwings exposed so you can only see...
