Gardening Forum 3 : Help! Could You Please Identify These Shiny Blue Bugs Gnawing on My Apple Plants

How's it going Steemians? Yeah .. I've been gone a while.. been sick from too much partying .. and actually been better since yesterday but I also had to attend to the things that have already piled up from being in bed for days.

It's always good to be back and I'd like to thank a few who asked how I've been. Pretty sweet of you @oaldamster, @meesterboom, @bleujay and @kus-knee - who's constantly encouraging me in many ways though you're not on my tweeter - you found a way to connect! Yes, I was about to write the draft for this one when I saw your chat message redirected in my mail. I'm good thank you all for asking! It's the longest I've been gone and my fingers sure missed my keypads for days and you all!

I'd also like to apologize to those who joined @edje's challenge for not being able to get back at you guys and thank you personally. I'm so sorry I didn't know I would be ill days later, I thought I'd recuperate a few days later but just when I felt a bit better I went out and exhausted myself to the cold and had to stay in bed for more days. Thank you all very much for participating!

I'm back and I have a few questions to throw and hopefully someone would educate me on this one.
