Wish I could find the video of one of these guys sitting on my finger for several minutes while spooling out a web line that made them look like they were practicing karate.

There are more lizard pollinators in the world than we tend to think but my favourites are day geckos in Mauritius.

They may not be bugs but they're doing bug stuff and almost offensively cute

This little baby is a Lord Howe Rock Lobster and was thought to be extinct until found on a sea rock a few years ago. Now there are hundreds of thousands of them.

I demand my Pokemon Snap points.

[-] Dort_Owl@hexbear.net 8 points 1 month ago

Oh! That's a caterpillar! It's eating a flower, what a cute pose! It's large and in frame! Wonderful!

Uhhh I forgot what a good score in Pokemon Snap is so I'll just give you 1000 points and assume that's a a lot.

Ants count, right? I think they're cute, at least.

Of course ants count! tenna-cabbage-fast

Oh yeah also Austracantha minax, the Christmas or Jewel spider

Love seeing them out in the bush.

I hope a mollusc is ok. This guy is probably one of the cutest things ever:

Jorunna parva, commonly known as the sea bunny, is a species of dorid nudibranch, a shell-less marine gastropod mollusc in the family Discodorididae.

This site is cringe, but the bug pictures are nice. https://www.boredpanda.com/cute-bugs/

It was also one of the few results for ”cute bug” that was on the front page and not AI slop.

Where?! SHOW MEEEEE.

Oh wait. I see. Sorry I got excited at the prospect of more moths.
