Juvenile Assassin Bug

In the past several years the insect variety around my home has diminished markedly and it makes me sad for many reasons. I really miss the photo ops, so when this creature showed up I ran for a camera with a macro lens.

Olympus OM-D E-M10 Mark II
1/100s f/8.0 at 60.0mm iso5000 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

Superb shot of this assassin bug, one I see rarely these days. Like you, I have noticed the same insect decrease around my home and in all the local natural areas I go. It is disheartening and concerning. V

He is a fascinating looking insect, well named.
