No Bugs

Waterflow

I apologize for so many photos, but just a little.

Time exposure with the reflection of the sun.

Hymenoptera

Lasioglossum, subgenus Dialictus

Proctotrupidae wasps.

From BugGuide:

Identification

Antennae with 13 segments

Terminal abdominal segment narrow, elongated, and down-curved in many species

Non metallic. Often black, sometimes red.

Forewing with large stigma, beyond which is a very small marginal cell.

Parasitoids of beetle larvae, fungus gnats

Cryptinae, I think.

Is this Diapriidae? EDIT: Probably not. That appears to be a stigma on the wing, in which case it’s likely to be another Proctotrupidae.

Odonata

Spiders

Agelenopsis. Note the distended palps. That’s a male mating with the female.

Perhaps Mangora

Mangora placida

Sergiolus in Gnaphosidae.

Leucauge venusta

Trichoptera

Diptera

Stunning mosquito! Or gnat.
