The Junk Bug

I saw this tiny pile of debris trundling along the deck railing.

Junk bug


The trashy pack on its back is made of lichen, leaves and dead bodies.


After it sucks the life-blood out of a victim, it stacks its body parts on its back to use as camouflage.

The messy mass moves along slowly searching for its next meal and fashion accessory.


I have to admit I think they are cute once you get past the extra legs sticking out of its back.

JUNK and FLOW
