Wheel Bug Lurking in Hibiscus
Several of my earlier shots of this species are better from a biological ID standpoint but this one offers a glimpse of it lurking in the empty cup of a fallen Hibiscus bloom. A bit of a neighboring bloom shows in the lower right corner. What is missing is what it is waiting for. Dinner.

Very nice shot with a insight into a fierce looking bug's life.
