Having spoken about bugs, I think that with this weather we should all get out there and snap some! Because some of them are actually really pretty.

Here's a couple that I spotted at my local park...

This is a male banded demoiselle which despite having a two year life span, only lives for 2 weeks out of the water in it's full adult state.



And a yellow honey bee

Not a brilliant pic, but snapped this last night in my kitchen. It was a complete monster! :lol: Apparently it's an elephant hawk moth. :thumb:

These photos are fantastic.

Here are a couple of photos I have taken (couldn't find them all which was probably a good job lol)















Sorry for the photo overload, couldn't decide on which ones to choose

These are all stunning!

I adore looking at insects in photographs, I hate having them around me though.
