When my friends and I were playing badminton, suddenly there was an insect flying around me and not long after the insect immediately landed on the badminton net, at first we ignored the insect until we finished the game, with curiosity I started walking to approach the insect and it turned out that it was a red insect or often called Bapak Pucung. In my area we can easily find this insect when the cotton fruit season arrives, and this insect is also often associated with cotton trees. This is a flying insect but he often spends his time on trees and the good news is that this insect is completely harmless to humans and we can hold and play with it as much as we want. When this insect was perched on the badminton net I immediately tried to photograph it from various different angles, he did not fly and let me photograph him as much as I wanted, the results I got also looked very satisfying because they looked very detailed.
Okay friends, now I will share some pictures of this insect here.
