Life, not welcomed everywhere


So what we have here is a wildflower that is helping to feed an insect... right?   That's what I saw.

Seen from another point of view, it's a tarnished plant bug on a weed, and neither of them are welcome in a lot of places on Earth. 

According to Penn State University:  "Examples of good hosts for tarnished plant bug are aster-like flowers, from daisy fleabane in the spring to ragweed, goldenrod, and horsetail later in the year."  Yep, that looks like daisy fleabane to me.
