Lynx Spiders are hunting spiders that spend their lives on plants, flowers and shrubs. Nimble runners and jumpers, they rely on their keen eyesight to stalk, chase or ambush prey. Six of their eight eyes are arranged in a hexagon-like pattern, a characteristic that identifies them as members of the family Oxyopidae. They also have spiny legs.
Common genera in the United States include Oxyopes—the common lynx spiders—and Peucetia—the green lynx spiders.
Some members of the genus Oxyopes are abundant enough to be important in agricultural systems as biological control agents. This is especially true of the striped lynx spider (Oxyopes salticus).
A member of the genus Tapinillus is remarkable as being one of the few social spiders, living in colonies.

Two walking-stick insects mating in a garden in McDonald's Corners, Ontario Canada. The small brown one is the male and the much larger green one is the female.
Insect and flower. I shot this series with Olympus TOUGH TG-5 by using (normal) macro feature. In this case I could not use extended focus because insect was moving way too fast and it was quite challange to get some photos even with normal macro. I shot over 200 photos to get these few. However with compact macro (with small sensor size) this is somewhat easier than with full frame sensor DSLR and macro lens. Hausjärvi, Finland. 28.8.2017

A parasitised Scale Insect on a bay leaf found in Summerfields Wood below the Walled Garden. Two larvae are clearly visible within. Picture below shows the same cocoon shortly after the adult wasps have eclosed, two exit holes are visible.

A male insect (I don't know the species) appears to have other things on his mind than the pollen feast around him as he looks up and down a female with his compound eyes. A short while later, the two were engaged in insect love making. Sigma 150mm macro and ring flash.
I often get insect bites, mainly from flies and they don't really cause any problems and they disappear in a few days.
But this one yesterday (some fly), whilst I was photographing a damselfly, got me right on a vein on my wrist, and as the photo shows the venom as travelled all the way up the vein. It as also swelled up quite bad on the wrist.
I might have to start using insect repellent.
I did take the photo by using a tripod and some light from the side.....and my smallest camera Olympus Mju 740 and using the macro funtion asclose as I can....my macro isn´t good enough on my Olympus E 520......
But I still have to tri usong the Bresser microscope to see what I can get on the picture..and sharp....but here I managed to get a picture of the whole wing....though it isn´t all sharp, I know....the size of the wing on my photo is 1,8 cm....and it is in moclay....found on the island of Mors in oktober 2009...in Denmark....eocene..
I guess it is a wing from a Phenacolestes jutlandica or just Coenagrionidae , but I´m not at all absolutely sure...just a guess...after been loooking in books and sites on the internet....
here is a link to Henrik jensens fossil site, where he shows a wing like this, I think: www.danske-fossiler.dk/HSJ/Insekter-i-cementsten/XL/vandn... and tells it is a Coenagrionidae and I would like to be able to make such a good and sharp photo like his...
here is a link to Henrik jensens fossil site:

but other suggstions are welcome, sure....
