Observation date: May 30, 2019

Specimen type: Photograph
Observation notes: It was in my chicken run crawling on some wire that goes over their water. The closest plants were honeysuckle, so I put it there (this was before I knew it was poisonous). The image that I have there is not my image, but that is what it looked like.
