Here is a closeup. The folded vestiges of legs at the front are just used for cleaning, according to info on the web. Heck, 4 legs should be enough. Beautiful colors great shot, Archibald. I think 4 functional legs are plenty...heck, I get by with 2. LD, or Mike

Lame-Duck I have indeed had pine nuts More info | Sep 17, 2018 23:07 | #968 Nice shot Archibald. By George, it does look like the other one. I believe you've done it. There is more than one!! I can't be sure from the camera angle, but it sure looks like the one that Macroramphosis posted. I believe I'll celebrate with a shot of scotch. LD, or Mike

Neat captures! And hard to do. I know, I've tried it. Thank you, almost impossible, they were swinging not only in and out of focus but almost completely out of the frame!

Sep 18, 2018 12:43 | #973 Went out yesterday to the local ravine in a balmy 8°C to see if any bugs survived the snow and mild frost (-2°C) of the last few days. Success! There were more or less the normal amount of bugs, of the normal variety.  Image hosted by forum (933852) © Archibald [SHARE LINK] THIS IS A LOW QUALITY PREVIEW.

Success! There were more or less the normal amount of bugs, of the normal variety. Here is a ladybug sipping water from a drop. Very nice, sharp image, Archibald. It's kind of weird to think that a single drop of water can easily quench their thirst. LD, or Mike
