Interesting how some insects choose camouflage and some choose bright colors with some other mode of defense.

It looks rather tall & thin like it's hosts :) A nice capture, Christine

How pretty. I think I need some of those here if they will kill the poplar trees that spring up all over my woods and need to be removed.
