my very first scorpion fly.he was very tough to approach with the mpe-65,which is all I had with me at the time.as soon as I would get into position,he would fly a short distance.finally after about 15 min., of this he allowed me a few shots.

couldn,t get a low enough angle to get his appendage clearly
