This afternoon I tried again to go hunting in one of the gardens in my area, but the weather was not as favorable as usual, I went after the rain so I almost gave up and I didn't find a single insect after almost an hour I looked among the bushes

When I wanted to go home, on one of the leaves I saw a unique insect, it was small, gray and had small, fine spots, it had a long nose, but the unique thing about this insect was that when it realized we were approaching, it would pretend to faint and fall down, this insect is included in the insect species Curculionidae

Wow me encanta lo raro que es ese insecto, se hizo esperar, pero llegó justo para hacer que tu caza haya valido la pena, me encanta! Últimamente he encontrado insectos que nunca antes había visto, el último que ví fue uno parecido a una avispa pero más alargadas y con alas más redondas y tienen un color negro intenso que dependiendo de la luz, en algunas partes se convierte en un azul metalizado. Increíblemente hermoso. Gracias por compartir, saludos!

maybe these insects don't live in all areas so a few look very rare in your area, of course there are many insects that live in different places but they look so unique
