I took this a few years ago at a vacation. Some medium sized extremely quick bug swooped in and looked at the lens at the exact moment I clicked. Then if flew away.

I believe (not that it's a big deal) that this is likely a Carpenter Bee. I've taken insect macros for many years. I can even see hints of the "Ocelli" eyes between the compound eyes. (Pic below of Carpenter Bee in flight is not one of mine.)

Meanwhile, in Dallas, my wife is hiring people for "Data Entry" type jobs with nearly 0 experience for 60k a year. They are making the positions only open to local workers and are debating making it work from home with face appearances every so often alongside web-meetings.

60k a year, to potentially work from home.

If you are unemployed and WANT a job in this market, this is on you.

While I feel sympathy for these people, the reality is that at least 50% of these people wouldn't show up to a job after the 3rd week or their drug test would show regular usage of more than weed, because even her company doesn't care about weed.
