Bushes near a wooded area
Jodie3 - I don't know the answer to your question. I have some blueberry bushes this year but haven't seen them there. I've usually seen them near fields or on the edges of woods.
Would it be normal to find these on blueberry bushes the first part of July. I think this is what I found but I'm not sure.
Thanks, Emily - could be. I have posted it on BugGuide to see if I get a definite ID there.
