new and strange
There are new flowers growing in my yard. I think they're gladiolas. These are plants that come up year after year, someone planted them here before we owned the house. In the front is a lovely pink spray
and in the back a red one so brilliant it looks unreal.
And I found a very strange, decorative insect on the window outside. I've never seen such crazy colors on a bug- it makes me think of a snake, for some reason. Is it a nymph of some kind?
what is this bug??

I did some searching. I think it's the Ailanthus webworm, apparently a bug that doesn't live here but migrates, and is considered beneficial because it eats an invasive tree.
