I found this dynamic little caterpillar making a meal of a native snake vine, Hibbertia scandens.
Phalaenoides glycinae is a native moth, inhabiting the south-east of our country. It is a day flying moth and with its colour combination of black, cream and bright orange, can often be mistaken for a butterfly.
Adult moths feed on nectar and live for only two to three weeks. Larvae as seen here, feed on plants within family Vitaceae, Dilleniaceae and Onagraceae.

Hier habe ich gestern auch diese Kleine Pechlibelle (junges Weibchen) knipsen dürfen.
Schon erstaunlich wieviel Arten es gibt :)

La coccinelle, petite étoile du jardin.
There's a cluster of unhatched eggs below the bug, and another hatched lot to the left of the picture.
I bought a kit so I could raise a few Swallowtail Butterflies (Papilio machaon) and this is the first one to emerge from a cocoon. I tried to get some shots of the second one I had, but it took off right away.
Tech Specs: Canon 80D (F11, 1/250, ISO 100) + a Canon MP-E 65mm macro lens (4x) + a diffused MT-26EX-RT with a Kaiser adjustable flash shoe on the "A" head (the key), E-TTL metering, -1/3 FEC). This is a single, uncropped, frame taken hand held. In post I used Topaz Denoise AI, Sharpen AI, and Clarity in that order. To get the depth that you see in this image I focused on the critter's proboscis and then twisted my wrist to lay the area of acceptable focus over as much of its eye as I could. So it's my technique that's making the difference and not the lens. The level of detail is also due to the quality and angle of my light.

Letzten Samstag habe ich das erste mal mit der Lumix S1 das Focus Bracketing ausprobiert 📷👍
Dieses Bild entstand aus 60 Einzelaufnahmen mit der Focus Bracketing Funktion der Lumix S1 👌💯
Ich bin mehr als begeistert von dem Ergebnis ❤❤❤
Gestern Früh konnte ich diesen jungen großen Blaupfeil einfangen mit meiner Kamera.
Ich gehe davon aus das Er erst vor kurzem geschlüpft ist, da die Farben noch nicht komplett ausgereift sind und die Flügel ziemlich weiß waren.
Eastern Moors - Derbyshire - not a particularly good shot - just a record as it was the first one I've seen close to
Since I initially sighted her eight days ago, beginning her project under a yucca leaf in the garden...the paper wasp queen has been busy adding cells to her nest and a few days ago laid her first eggs.

Found a little Scissor Bee (Chelostoma emarginatum, male) semi active in a Buttercup flower. Had to take the magnification to 4x for this one to get a portrait of him.
