Seen on the trail, and posing helpfully. Sometimes the dragons will allow a fairly close approach, especially if they're eating. This one didn't seem to be, though...
Again one from the archives. A mayfly earlier this year. I´m not the kind of "macro" guy, but from time to time i try it :)
Thank you all for your faves & comments.

I generally prefer shooting butterflies and bees in the lantana, but the dipterans can be intresting too - Happy Fly Day Friday!
A beautiful big bumblebee on the orange butterfly weed in my Maryland garden this afternoon 6/17/23.
Beats me how I could have bees hard at work in my yard in the middle of winter here. There are a few succulents beginning to bloom like this one, but the blooms are just starting to open. Poor little bee was really digging in, working hard.
At 35mm, this striking Grey Dagger moth caterpillar is almost full grown and will soon pupate within a cocoon for overwintering. Adults fly during June and July and are attracted to light and sugar. They are widespread and fairly common over much of England and Wales.
This Noctuidae larva has a distinctive yellow dorsal stripe and tall fleshy hump on the fourth segment. It was found feeding on a shrub in a neighbour's garden.
I think this is a kind of wildbees... but maybe it`s a kind of wasps. I would enjoy if somebody knows more.
