I've heard that photographing black dogs and cats is challenging and wanted to give it a try. My neighbor was kind enough to let me take this shot of their black labrador, Gus. The shot was taken in the late afternoon sun and shot as a raw file. If I were to do this over again, I would have bracketed the exposure rather than shooting continuously and merged images in post.

The cuckoo wasp (aka jewel wasp) is a small parasitoid wasp that lays its eggs in the nests of other insects so that their larvae may feed on those of the other species. Adults feed on smaller arthropods and nectar of plants on which they land. While the body shape is somewhat similar to that of bees, the cuckoo wasp lacks any hairs on the body which is instead, covered by coarse pits. As a result, they cannot transfer pollen. Over 60 species are found in Michigan.
