Tiny Macro Mondays - Part of earphone

A quiet beauty, almost unnoticed.

For Macro Mondays’ challenge: Curves

So lucky to have seen the smallest of our Coppers again this year.

This northern species is an obligate dweller of acidic bogs and wet sedge meadows with wild cranberries.

The entire life cycle of the Bog Copper depends on wild cranberries (in this location Small Cranberry/Vaccinium oxycoccos). The tiny white blooms provide nectar for the adults, females lay their eggs on the undersides of the tiny leaves and the larvae feed on the shoots and leaves.

As with other small butterflies, there is only one brood per year and the lifespan of the adults is rather short. They spend most of their life in other forms with eggs surviving ice and periodic inundation submerged in freezing water and the larvae feeding on the cranberry leaves the following spring. The adults emerge in early July and may fly for two to three weeks.

Freshly emerged males have beautiful purplish sheen on top of their wings. This individual is perched on a blackberry bloom. (see my other shots in this series)

I grow these coral bells for their foliage, which is beautiful in every season, but I am smitten with the tiny blooms on the stalks of flowers this time of year.

Tiny wildflowers begin to pop up through recently cut grass.

Is he the little maker or the little keeper of the crystals? We may never know; we only know he is adorable! :)

Originally a phone charm, sitting atop a phone case. Crystals and more crystals!

My little white terrier sotted this little guy on the siding of the house. I've only seen one toad smaller than this little frog. He was quit patient with me getting close to him.

I don't take much with me on a regular basis but one thing that is always with me is this tiny led torch on my keyring. It's small but still a bright light when needed (I even used it to light Tasku for a photo on one occasion), and it's rechargeable.

The image measures a little under 2" in width.

This was attempt N°1 for my photo of the day. Then I remembered that I'd already taken raindrops this month, so went back to the drawing-board.

Much better viewed large.

Thank you for your favourites. :O)

Large Duck Orchid:- it's tiny so the title must be comparative :)

OK I think it's probably a storage shed, but it's cute, isn't it?

And it could be a tiny house, since the size of a tiny house is considered to be 100-400 square feet. 100 feet, the size of a small bedroom......

I am so glad that I took the chance to go and visit these :o)

I haven't been there for five years during the blooming of the scilla siberica.

It's not too often you get this close to a Least Tern!

Tiny but Mighty - These Coppersmith Barbets really stole the show. They're tiny, but have a big attitude. The other species around the hide clearly had a healthy respect for them. Their colors and large bill somewhat reminded me of a tiny toucan.

wild flowers

Easily overlooked, they are tiny!

There is a small farm on the start of our usual route into the Forest. They graze their Shetlands and miniature horses on a nearby common, but when their mares go into foal they take them in. There were two Shetlands in their nearby field both with new foals but this was the smallest. It was difficult to take a picture, as the mare was on the other side of the field but I wanted to share to show you just how tiny it was. Smaller than a labrador

They looked great for about a week, floating in the reflecting pool underneath the dancing jack o' lantern characters. And then the tiny pumpkins started to rot in the water. It was beautiful while it lasted, New York Botanical Garden, the Bronx, NYC -- October 7, 2020

At 600mm and such a high iso (2000), and handheld, I'm surprised this shot came out at all.

A small wildflower found growing next to a log in the back yard. The flower was roughly a half inch across.
