Both the same species (if I'm not badly mistaken). Both indoors within a foot of one another.

It looked a bit bumblebee-like while flying, but much less so once it landed.. black and orange abdomen, but black and yellow thorax (a bit fuzzy). A good 2cm (almsot 1 inch) long.

Found this at home in England. I moved to England from Hong Kong not long ago, so I'm not familiar with local spiders at all. Maybe it's very common?

I tried to usher it out but it decided to play dead.

Hi,

Comparing to leptiri.hr I think I identified this moth to be of macdunnoughia confusa: https://leptiri.hr/Noctuidae/Macdunnoughia-confusa

For sanity I wanted to do a double check if I'm right, so lemmings please help with verification of this moth from central Croatia, Europe.

Tnx

This little devil jumped out of a living pigeon into my apartment

Found one crawling across my kitchen floor, then another the next morning on my kitchen table.

Found this crawling on a porch rail. Anyone know what type it might be?

Found just chilling in the middle of the floor, probably around an inch in length. Think it might be a wolf spider.

My dad spotted these while doing yard work. He's curious to know if they're invasive. There was a little hole in the ground that they seemed to be crowding into.

Is this a termite? (lemmy.world)

This is from Illinois. I think maybe it's a spider wasp, but I don't have any idea what I'm talking about, so I worry that it's a termite.
