The insects have returned to My World. Check out this Red Admiral on my porch.
I even saw a Dragonfly at rest.
A Water Skitter was at rest.
The Water Bugs were dancing.
I had to include this Red Ant home from Mexico. Check out the red giant.
Go visit some other worlds today.
Fantastic captures. You have got all of them.
ReplyDeleteYou got some great shots of the variety of insects making a comeback. I think dragonflies are hard to photograph and you did a great job.
ReplyDeleteWonderful critters from your part of the world, great photos as always.
ReplyDeleteOh, you sure know your bugs, Fishing Guy. I like dragonflies.
ReplyDeleteThey are cool. Joann P.S. Little Jack wanted the whole pool for himself, Even his Mommy couldn't get in with him.
What terrific captures, Tom! Love seeing all the really little, lovely critters! Hope you have a great week!

The boys and girls are definitely back in town!
ReplyDeleteThese are a wonderful collection of bugs....I can do without the ants but the dragon fly is wonderful. In Haida they are called "momajenga"(phonetic spelling).
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your wonderful photos Tom.

Criters are getting busy for sure. Nice captures!
ReplyDeleteThose red ants look big. Grab some chocolate syrup, and you've got a meal!
ReplyDeleteWow! I'm glad the red ants around here aren't that big!!
ReplyDeleteThe skipper is pretty. And I like his shadow just as much.
amazing creatures.
ReplyDeleteAmazing shots-they're so clear and they're of tiny little insects :)
ReplyDeleteThese are wonderful pictures of your insect visitors.
ReplyDeleteI have just been catching up with your posts. The Insects, Birds and flowers are excellent. Diane
ReplyDeleteFishing Guy, these are all wonderful images....I have tried to capture an ant and not had good luck at all. Maybe after seeing the one here I will try again.
ReplyDeleteThese are great images.
ReplyDeleteHowever the butterfly is a Red Admiral not a Silver Spotted Skipper.
Thanks, changed the name of the butterfly.
