Pretty cool that bugs will tolerate each other like that. Nice shots.

First time out with the new (new to me) Sigma 180. I have to say I love the lens. OS would be sweet, but just have to practice handholding very still. Thanks everyone.

Shoreliner - They regularly did grabbing flies as prey!! The male and female were funny. The male would let me get within an inch, but the female wouldn't.
