Forget-Me-Not Heart For Frankie

Not much time for photography as I took MrQ for a blood test this morning and to the hospital eye clinic this afternoon.The weather has been better than forecast, no rain for a change.

I found another, different Mirid, complete with heart, on the forget-me-not-like flower on Frankie dog's grave. This one is known as a red bug. Mirids are true bugs. 

The True Bugs are insects that have two pairs of wings, the front or outer pair of each divided into a leathery basal part and a membranous apical part. These wing covers are held over the back and often partly folded. True bugs have hypodermic-needle-like mouthparts that allow them to extract subsurface fluids from plants and animals. Bugs undergo incomplete metamorphosis, with their young looking much like adults, but without wings.
