Lantern Fly. Super Destructive, But So Pretty!

Here's a little blip I found about them. "The spotted lanternfly causes serious damage including oozing sap, wilting, leaf curling and dieback in trees, vines, crops and many other types of plants. In addition to plant damage, when spotted lanternflies feed, they excrete a sugary substance, called honeydew, that encourages the growth of black sooty mold."

Saw this sand wasp with its unfortunate catch at Spurn Point (U.K). I believe they take the prey back to their burrow and lay their eggs in them, thus providing a source of food when the eggs hatch. If this is wrong I would be interested in the real reason if anyone would care to enlighten me

"Morning glory plume moth?" Or, "Goldenrod Borer Plume Moth?" Not sure which, but it is a "plume moth," for sure.

I wish I had seen this before it closed. I had some bugs in my yard that I still have not been able to id. Asked a couple people and they came back with meals worms. Which I googled and they look Nothing like meal worms at any stage. Have always seen part of them in my yard and always thought they were from a plant. Until I noticed a maple leaf that had fallen. It was a nest of these that had hatched. I have videos of them. But no idea what they are.
