Satellite fly....Happy flyday Friday

Trying to conquer my fear of creepy crawlers...have to say seeing them close up is not helping!

Nikon SB-800 need directly above subject at 1/64th power.

 

I found this little guy perched on some grass along a slow moving stream. I was lucky enough to see him in action as he swooped out to catch his prey and return briefly before flying off.

A hairy creature when viewed up close. HWW!

No I didnt kill it, I let it out of the window :o)

I was very lucky to come across this beautiful large Moth today, had forgotten how big they are and how colourful when flying :)

Ferocious beast with warts and spines making it less likely to be eaten. They moult four times and then pupate before emerging as an adult ladybird.

Not really what I wanted to find on one of my roses this morning! (I think it's a rose sawfly)

Never seen this insect before no idea what it is Thanks to Simon Robson for the ID Bibio sp

Apologies for wrong name given.

Found this guy on coneflower this morning.

Lift up your candle dress

Unweave your nylon spine

In velvet and in onions

You will soon be mine

I am your humble servant

Madam as you see

Tonight I am determined

You will lie along with me

You are an insect mother

With a black shiny head

That parts your cloak to open

Human you upon the bed

You are an insect mother

I your jammy son

And now we've found each other

There is nowhere else to run

Lift up your candle dress

Unweave your nylon spine

In velvet and in onions

You will soon be mine

Spotted this ladybird resting on an aquilegia leaf in my garden. Ready to take flight with its wings beginning to open I had to act fast. A few images and it had flown.
