Buggin out
Charlie makes a great assistant when I’m trying to get a shot.
I don’t know why, but he didn’t want it on his head this time, go figure.
Had to take one through the fisheye… because, why not!
Behind it is the wisteria trellis Ben and I bulit this summer.
Maybe next year my wisteria will bloom. Fingers crossed.
Of course every bug needs her close up.
Thanks for looking guys!

She is so creepy she is gorgeous.
Now forgive me. I’m going to run around the house now screaming “EEEEEEEEEWWWW!”
That’s Charlie? Good Lord, he’s growing like a weed! Great pics, as usual!
I was just thinking….uh, when did Charlie get so grown up?!? You’ve been gone too long, apparently! LOVE the bug shots!
Totally enjoyed~
She needed a bit of powder for this close-up, she has a bit of shine on her forehead.

Remarkable photos Ang .
I observed in the past in Africa a mantis was able to eat a fly in one minute ! This is a ferocious predator . But such it is .
