"Jaws"
Earwig (Dermaptera)
This is a macro image of an earwig's abdomen displaying its formidable pincers, it was hiding in the lavender flowers when I spotted it.
These little insects are not poisonous or very dangerous, even with those impressive forceps, I was temped to put my finger into it's open jaws, but thought better of it?
There are 200 different species of Dermaptera or earwig around the world!
