My first post for Community: Fascinating Insects
Hi there my Steemian friends and followers!
This is my very first post for a Community. To be honest with you, I haven´t really figured out how this new feature works, how it differs from just using tags as we did it before and who will actually see this post but let me try it out :)
I am submitting this post to the Fascinating Insects community that was created by @jaki01, a great Steemian and a dedicated wildlife (particularly insects and other arthropods) enthusiast and photographer.
I can see some spectacular insect close up shots have been shared in this Community so let me now show you my humble collection too :)
All of those photos were taken by me in different parts of the world, mostly in Mexico, Costa Rica and Colombia. I took them with my cell phone.
I am really looking forward to what will show up in this Community in future. Thank you for creating it and inviting me in, @jaki01 :)
This post was created by me for the Steem blockchain exclusively.
I am very happy to see you posting here in my insect community!
And I'm bound to say that your first post is really great, full of fantastic photos (indeed "fascinating insectes")! :)
Thank you so much for your warm welcome mr. admin :) When I was thinking about my first community post, your group was a clear choice ;) Really looking forward to all the posts that will show up here.
Yes, lets hope many insect fans will join, :)
I am am looking forward to contribute as well, as soon as it's getting warmer again here in Germany, so that more insects will leave their winter hiding places.
At least recently I found this bug (Rhaphigaster nebulosa) on a wall of our house:
Now that´s a beauty! :)) Yeah, the bug season is coming in Europe :)
Wow, great photos! What kind of Cockroach is that?
Thanks :) I am pretty sure it is the American Cockroach (Periplaneta Americana). This is actually the only species of cockroach I have seen so far in both Europe and all Americas...
Alright thank you!
I will see some more this week. In a package. Because I ordered some :P
Gromphadorhina portentosa and Shelfordella lateralis ^^
Totally looking forward to keeping these fascinating insects!
Wow, you really keep cockroaches?! :D That sounds like my girlfriend´s nightmare :D We have spent a couple of years in various tropical and subtropical destinations and cockroaches have been quite an issue for us in most of them :D Even I, a dedicated nature lover, must admit I don´t like them much :D :(
I mainly keep ants, and since they need proteins... So besides being a pet, the cockroaches serve a second purpose :|
At least the Shelfordella lateralis, they're popular feeding insects^^
Gromphadorhina portentosa are pretty big, slow moving, can't fly, and make weird sounds sometimes. Not the typical cockroach.
It's just like with any other pet that isn't a cat or a dog - it sounds kinda weird until you see the animal being a pet "in action" :P

Haha I know exactly what you mean ;) I have had many unusual pets too, from giant prickly sticks to various crustaceans but I found all of them fascinating even before I had them. Unlike, well, the roaches :D I guess I have just had too many unpleasant encounters with them on my travels :D
Makes sense... here in germany they aren't found very often, I only occasionally stumble upon single Ectobius vittiventris in the woods, they're just small and beautiful :)
So: No unpleasant encounters for me :P
Good shots! I really liked the green insect with branches that looks like a bush :)
Thank you Sofia :) I captured that strikingly colored caterpillar in Costa Rica :)
Krásní hmyzáci. Ta housenka se stromečky nemá chybu.
@matkodurko by se mnou jistě nesouhlasil. Žije ještě? :)

To si pamatuješ správně, že Maťko moje hmyzí posty nemusel :D Jo žije, ale na Steem už delší dobu kašle... Prý dělá na nějakých svých projektech...
Tak to jo. Ta ho někdy pozdravuj od českého rybníčku ;)
Jasně, zrovna jsem mu napsal ;)
Fajn :)
