This is just to post photos of my cat Viktor in Germany. So Flauschig (so fluffy)!
It just looks like a mud dauber, a wasp that builds mud nests and stuffs them full of spiders and grubs for their children to eat.
Looks like coral and brachiopod fragments. Good finds.
Yes, they are called larval eels, or Leptocephalus. But nobody actually knows that word.
It's an eel larva, they are transparent as camouflage until they get older.
These are called ambush bugs. They live on flowers like goldenrod and hunt insects that come to the flowers.
It's a robber fly. It's a predatory fly that eats other insects. Harmless to you, and might eat some pests you hate.
Any man that tucks his T-shirt into his pants without a belt is one you should be wary of. Dressed casual but open for business.
E Dragsted is the manufacturer, out of Copenhagen, Denmark. I don't know what the item is for though.
Nice garden! It's so worth it once it's ripe, you will notice the better taste, and it saves a lot of money too!
Robber fly. They're a good fly for the garden, they're predators that catch other insects.

It's hard to tell, but it looks like a lot like a Caecilian. Which is actually a very weird kind of amphibian.
Looks great! It's amazing how much food you can get out of a small garden and it tastes so much better fresh.
Yes, that is a carrion beetle.
Very interesting! It looks like a leafhopper nymph mimicking a katydid nymph with its tail as the antenna. I have never seen one like it.
Do you have other photos from the side? It looks like a Hornet Moth mimicking a wasp based on the antenna, wings and lack of thorax gap.
European Paper Wasp
If they're super tiny, then they're a planthopper nymph with that tail. Acanaloniidae family.
No banana for scale, but looks like emerging cicada nymphs. Are they leaving shells behind?
Ken M, is that you?

The rare salad fingers plant
These look like eyeball monsters in the thumbnail. Delicious eyeball monsters.
I thought winnie the pooh was the villain in China?
That is a ladybug pupae. So a ladybug larva turning into a fullgrown ladybug. They prey on plant pests, always something you want.
Mystery plant #1 looks like Lamb's Quarters, which is a quinoa relative and weed, but is also edible and tasty if cooked right.
It's a katydid. Most eat plants, a few are omnivorous, and a few are insect predators. The sharp part at the back is for laying eggs
Salsify is so tasty. A forgotten vegetable
Sounds rough, maybe volunteer locally or something that gets you out of the house and helps others? Or a pen-pal, lots of lonely folks now.
The giant spiders casting their shadows outside must have eaten them all. Guess they're coming here next?
