Here are a few macro shots which I took over the weekend.
First, a little brown moth which I rescued from between our kitchen window and screen, here shot on a jade plant which it rode out the door:
Then there was this match-head size spider, hiding inside the shell of a hickory nut which had been gnawed open and eaten by a rodent:
…Thanks to Susan’s keen eye for noticing it when it was tucked up into a corner!
And last, this little beetle basking on a flower petal in our dooryard:
…looking for all the world like a little piece of jewelry.
Tomorrow we’ll return to the Big People’s World. 😉
How cute is he?! That moth has quite an expression!
Insects are so very interesting. Sorry for stating the obvious, but these pics are fun!
