Mit ihrer feinen Körnung sieht Lepidoniscus minutus schon sehr schick aus. Sie lebt in Laubwäldern oder an Felshängen unter Moos und Steinen. Ich habe sie bisher leider erst einmal gefunden.

A spiky shield bug nymph on a blackberry leaf. I like its antenna flaps, which remind me of squid tentacles.

Don't know what was going on here. These ladies were swarming up through a crack in the sidewalk. All workers as far as I could tell.
iNaturalist algorithm thinks they're "Immigrant Pavement Ants"

A butterfly caught raiding the cat food dish. Was it after cat food or condensation? It has a beautiful subtle color and texture.

Maybe a queen or drone carpenter ant?
Found, of all places, on a bridge between Boston and Cambridge.

“La Demoiselle du Quai des Dames”
A pretty lady all dressed in blue, quiet enough for me to photograph her with my Fujifilm X-T2 and its 56mm f/1.2 (until I get a real macro lens!), during an outing with friends of the Photo Club of Draveil.

Yours is also some really good closeups.
I tried last month with one, but it would not stay still long enough to focus on well with my phone:

A little sepsid fly watches the photographer while blowing a bubble and lazily waggling its wings back and forth. "Whatcha doin'?", it says.

Another stinging caterpillar, a saddleback caterpillar (Acharia stimulea), showing off its fine green livery while waiting for a fairy knight (in spine-proof armor) to ride it into battle.
