Hiya All

Couldn't quite match Alby's Head Lice, so here's a couple of Jumping Plant Lice instead :lol: the Louse in #2 was 2mm with my ruler & no it's not a Fishermans one :lol:

In #2 there are some freshly laid Eggs, I musta just missed the action :rolleyes::lol:

Cheers for now
Mark

You did well to get the eye detail. Do you still use a Raynox close up lens?

Hiya Toby, Alby,

Many thanks for your kind words & comments,

Toby,
I got the Raynox 250, I used to have one on my S3 IS but gave it away, then realised that I could use it on the Sigma 105 with a bit of care :lol:

Alby,
I've only ever found this type on Eucalyptus in these parts

Cheers for now
Mark

Hiya Linda, Alistair,

Many thanks for your kind words & comments, would be nice to capture the Eggs being laid be they seem to be very shy about doing that in public so far

Cheers for now
