We're moving into a new house and the entire backyard was absolutely wild, full of tons of inverts. I had a blast just rummaging around. Found a crud ton of grasshoppers, worms, isopods, spiders, and a million other things I could not ID for the life of me. Here are the pictures!

There where about a million of these guys on a branch. I have no clue what they are. Any help with the ID?



Some species of grasshopper.

This BEAUTIFUL Banded Garden Spider (a type of orb web, Argiope trifasciata)




Little American House Spider, Parasteatoda tepidariorum

Funnel Web Spider, Agelenosis spp.

Random clutch of babies. No clue what they where.

Adorable Slug <3

Misc.

Nice!

 

I love looking around outdoors to see what I can find. 

 

AAAAAAH! I'M SO EXCITED! Found a little garter snake (Thamnophis sirtalis sirtalis?) And another species of orb weaver. LOVE IT!


Black and Yellow Garden Spider (Argiope aurinata)

Another Agelenosis spp.

And an as of yet unidentified species of Amber Snail.

The snake and little snails looks awesome

nice!!!
amazing whats right there in ur backyard...most people wouldnt even notice =)

the bug in the first pics that are unidentified are Oncopeltus fasciatus(milkweed bug) these guys are awesome and are really easy to keep and breed. I have a small colony at home and we keep them for predatory water beetle and assassin feeder as well as study in the lab.
