EW YUCK! Bugs in MY garden?

A common occurrence in gardens is bugs. They're all about the place! Flies buzzing around picnics, caterpillars in your cabbages, bees in your bonnet... They can often ruin photographs and fly to flowers where they're not wanted. Yet sometimes, they can be fantastic subjects to photograph. It's always been fascinating, to me, to see the details in their little wings, the strange shapes of their eyes... They differ so much from humans, yet the way they live their lives has so much of the structure we aim to achieve in our own... Maybe we have something in common, after all... Spiders especially display discipline; their intricate webs can entrap dinner, but can appear beautiful in special circumstances...
