My first (3) cache(s)
They may bugger you, they don’t bugger me. These caches are inspired by bugs. Love bugs! I believe here in South Australia we have some very attractive and amazing bugs, and the three bugs I have chosen for the three Bugger-me-Bugs caches are the ones commonly found, observed and photographed in my own back yard, the school yard and really, you can find them everywhere.. even here ..
I chose this spot because, well, have you noticed the name of the road? And because besides bugs, I just love these beautiful country roads and maybe you do too!
When you find the cache I hope you will be pleasantly surprised (bugger me) by my creatively crafted critter-caches… Enjoy!!!
Please take care and be aware of our beautiful wildlife.
Jewel bug:
Scutelleridae is a family of true bugs, which are bugs that have mouths that suck, rather than beetles that have mouths that chomp.
They are commonly known as jewel bugs or metallic shield bugs due to their often brilliant coloration. They are also known as shield-backed bugs due to the enlargement of the last section of their thorax into a continuous shield over the abdomen and wings.
Jewel bugs are related to stink bugs, as they can produce a smell when they are irritated.
Jewel beetles are found throughout Australia.
There are around 450 jewel bug species worldwide.
