These insects, or what we usually call pests, are attacking some of our plants. Today, they happened to land on one of the green trees. They are a pest for the plants we are planning to plant. However, if you look closely, they are black with a few other colors mixed in.

These insects are quite tired. There are several seeds, but I only managed to capture about three of them. Because they can fly and run very fast, we can't photograph them immediately. We have to be really focused and not move too much to get close and photograph them.

I captured these insects using my smartphone camera. When viewed up close, they are truly beautiful and lovely because they are truly cute. For more details, I have prepared several photos. I hope you like them.
