Some kind of June beetle? It was on European plum blossom. I went back to collect it later but it was gone.
Unidentified black bee with pollen on the clove currants. North Central Washington State.
Can anyone tell me what this #Minibeast I spotted on my walk earlier is please? Apologies for the blurry photo :-S
Any clue as to what little creature might be inside this round coccoon? It's on a branch of an elderflower.
Anybody know what kind of fly this is, who landed on my laptop and proceeded to die in front of me? A hoverfly, maybe? I’m in the redwoods of Northern California.
Can anyone tell me who this fuzzy little friend is? (Wisconsin, USA)
I believe this is #Megachile xylocopoides, the carpenter-mimic leafcutter #bee. But I'm calling it the void bee :-)
Maggie says the wings on this bee look like stained glass!
Can any #iNaturalist folks confirm my ID? This is in Philadelphia, PA as usual.
trying again to upload a little video of a cute, fluffy #caterpillar for a potential #insectID by @StrepsipZerg 
Some native bees on the flowers. Bombus vagans on a cucumber, a tiny and black bee or wasp on the bee balm, some sort of longhorn bee on rudbeckia, and Bombus vagans again on the hyssop.
A tiny wasp on a rudbeckia petal. Maybe some type of square headed wasp. About 10mm long.

Can anyone ID this insect? Or, uh, these _luvas_ from atop the garbage can in NJ?
* Identified as Ptecticus trivittatus by @danielthedaring
I think this might be the same species as the first pic above (this is a reply). Maybe it's just a leafcutter bee leaving the other one with the big head unknown.
This was on a daylily.
Not sure what these are. sand wasp, weevil wasp, pollen wasp? I thought it was the same insect but I see my first photo was a different one so they pulled a switcheroo.
They were on the baby's breath, Gypsophila paniculata.
Last two photos. It was not a cooperative subject, might have stayed on any one flower for 2 seconds. It's slightly bigger than a honey bee worker.
3/3
More photos, it might have an iridescent blue to it's shiny abdomen but that could have been a different bee I saw for a moment.
2/n
Native bee on the violets, not sure what kind of bee, it's kind of furry and very fast.
More photos in the replies.
