a Microterys seyon wasp of the Encyrtidae in the pomegranate bush in the garden - these beautiful wasps are a regular sight in autumn and winter but never seem to see them in high summer.

Another in my series of back porch insects. These are taken at night with mostly my 200mm Nikon micro lens & flash.

A flower from our garden with an insect.

So I finished these cute moths last night and woke up this morning to find the hoop attacked by cats. I'm hoping I can save this, I wanted to use this in an insect themed quitl.

I made this for the St. Paul Art Crawl but I almost want to keep it for myself!
