Look at all the galleries in this wood!! They were probably made by emerald ash borer (Agrilus planipennis) larvae.

Habitat: Decorticated, rotting tree; meadow edge

  Oh! This so reminds me of a First Nations art piece I have on my wall here at home. Christine's picture is a scene of great insect activity and industry. Posted 4 years ago, modified 4 years ago

    Yes! They are nature's artists. I wonder how many beetle larvae were living under the bark of this tree! Posted 4 years ago
