I've searched loveydear - no such luck for me!! Thanks.

Hey loveydear I like your avatar, very nice indeed!

After I solved this one I noticed a 'face' in the light colored area. It's really cool!!!

Thanks Monica.

Wow, could you just imagine a tapestry done up in the same pattern as his wings? Hoooweee! That would be gorgeous! L.O.L Great pic Rob, great pic...Monica

Unusual and beautiful bug! Thanks for sharing him with us!

I can't decide if he's wearing royal robes or just looks like a quilt! That apparatus protruding from his head looks like a hedge trimmer! Beautiful creature. Thanks, RR.

Thanks dondi - I don't think you would see him on a persian carpet!!
I agree Shirley!! Thanks.

Ha ha, I was thinking, if you had not seen the picture, what would you visualise from the comments.
He's a very colourful leaf hopper, Thanks Rob.

Isn't it interesting robyn how everyone sees this little creature differently?

Great picture - pretty amazing detail and colors. Looks designed to be camouflaged when on a Persian carpet!

Nifty creature!!! Looks like a chain saw apparatus there. :)

Well, it's a fine looking insect until you see that weird proboscis.

A head on him like a sword-fish!!!

It's dressed llike Liberace!
