An idea for a contest theme.

[CrazyConure]

I had an idea for a theme. My idea is "pests". We often ignore these interesting animals, I realized you guys are looking at me like I'm nuts, but these often called "pests" can actually be rather beautiful. For example, a tomato hornworm; or the oleander aphid. They can be beautiful in their own ways. Maybe they can be a theme? I know it's a rather off theme, so it's ok if you don't want to do it, but it's an idea.

Nice idea, others may compare and better understand pests in their garden.

So, next time instead of spraying first we have to shoot it.

Sorry, I must have missed this thread .

That's a really interesting idea... I'll tag @Becky in this so she can take a look when she's back on her feet.

Good idea! Would "pests" include rabbits, voles, and other vegetable and flower attacking critters, not just insects?
I appreciate the fact that some of our "pests" are good looking, but no one, ever, will convince me that a squash bug is cute!

Yes. Pests would include rabbits, voles, and deer. We can include snails and slugs too.
