Damsel bug (Nabis)

Fletcher Wildlife Garden

These unusual looking insects overwinter as adults, and when spring comes and they become active again, they feed on a variety of insects, including caterpillars. This one is feeding on a tiny, tiny red admiral caterpillar, on some nettle. The bug itself is only about 7 mm and it is about the same size as the now dead caterpillar.
