Barn Swallow

I really like these birds!! the stalls and the aisle get a wee bit "dirty" while they are raising their young...the horses get a little dirty too! lol

But they are great bug eaters!!!

Raindrops are starting to be precious...

I just bought myself a Surface Pro 4 and tried tethered macro photography for the first time.

These aphids on the underside of an ornamental plant were all the wildlife I could find in our garden. In all seventeen images under artificial light, focus stacked using Helicon Focus 6. Hopefully I can find something more exotic as it gets warmer.

Everyone knows bugs are indestructible...I mean they can even thrive in Atomic Bomb testing sites. War needs solders who can be happy eating cat poop...

Bugs was so intent on what he was interested in, it was easy for me to get in close to get this shot. His focus did not waver an iota.

Unknown flying insect. Westmoreland County, PA

I'm not sure what this guy is-- he resembles a milkweed bug but I'm pretty sure he's not. [edit: subject looks like Lopidea, possibly L. instabilis, and the bomber is perhaps some sort of Lygus bug] At the time I took the photo I didn't notice the other unidentified critter hiding in the old bloom. The flower is from culinary sage. Glendale, Missouri

The red bug was careless, it didn't notice the spider in time and it was running through the spider's back. The spider was angry, but it didn't want to catch the red bug :-)

Or maybe it wanted just scare the spider! ;-)

graphosoma lineatum

I managed to capture this image of a small brown thornbill yesterday.

Hope you like this.
