Look closely. The Japanese Beetles have moved on from the flowering cherry tree and birch trees to the ferns. These photos don't do justice to the volume of bugs on the leaves, but it gives you an idea how we are swimming in these bugs right now.
They are ubiquitous. They are even on the petunias:
I don't know where they came from but I want them to go back. These shiny little insects are destroying our landscaping faster than we're clearing out the Amazon Rainforest.On a side note, BIG shout out to Eldest Niece for bowling a 267. Wow!!! If you aren't a bowler, you might foolishly be saying, "so what?" Well, that's a mighty impressive score--very close to a perfect game. Most of us will come closer to weighing 267 than we will ever come to bowling a 267. Congrats. You go, bowler grrrrl!
