I would love to be able to say that this is taken in the wild, but of course it is not. It is a part of an insect exhibit organized at the
NECCC conference by Kathy Macpherson Baca. Thanks, Kathy, for the wonderful experience! I am so glad to have met you in person, after admiring your images on Flickr for a long time. I had fun with your fascinating creatures, and learned a lot in the process of having fun.
Music:
Bambla Jolifanti, by John Tchicai, in 'Real Tchicai' (1977)

For this week's Macro Mondays theme "iSpy" (a subject beginning with A, E, I, O or U). I chose I (insect).
Nature constantly surprises me. I got up early this morning, brought a camera and a chair, sat down next to a lavender bush to take a picture of some insect. I took some nice pictures and headed to the house to pick a picture for MM. On the wall next to the front door, I saw this small (1cm), inconspicuous moth, and out of habit, I took a picture of him. When I saw him on the screen, the first thing I thought was ‘what luck that he is so small and I didn’t see his head because I would have run away for sure’. I called him Mr. Lizard's Head.
HMM!

This butterfly is a meadow brown, Maniola jurtina. it sits on a pincushion wildflower, Knautia arvensis.
"The difference between perseverance and obstinacy is that one comes from a strong will, and the other from a strong won't."
Henry Ward Beecher
I'm sure everyone has had that sort of a day....just feeling a bit obstinate. Apparently insects exhibit those feelings, too.
