OneCraftyBugger	Posted - Jun 02 2010 : 05:27:32 AM Sorry, I know thats a little nasty but.... We live in the North East, and I have never seen this bug before (maybe I just didnt notice) However, was out in the garden planting and I saw, what appeared to be a little dab of birdie poop on a leaf, all of a sudden it sprung wings and flew away!! You can emagin my amazment over the sight of flying poo... Anyways, has anyone ever seen a bug like that? and what the heck is it? Is it a good bug or a bad bug? Oh happy day!

And I found it on one of my morning glories, and that is one of the plants listed that this little poop likes to eat. Now, how do I get it to take a hike? Hmmmm.... maybe this calls for the old hot pepper and casteal soap mixture,,,,,, Oh happy day!

Posted - Jun 02 2010 : 3:17:34 PM Is this it? http://entnemdept.ufl.edu/creatures/orn/beetles/Plagiometriona_clavata.htm I also found where the caterpillar of swallowtail butterflies look like bird poo, but that won't work because it flew!
