Feeding Station..

Was out doing a reptile one-to-one last Friday and whilst we had a good number of adder and slow-worm to photograph, I couldn't help grab a couple of macro shots along the way. I think there are at least three 'bugs' on this plant and probably more.. Some really good shows of butterflies this year and the bees seem to be doing better in this neck of the woods..

A little tight maybe but if I moved back any further I would have had more thistle heads in the shot so decided this was the better option..

Anyway, hope all are well..?

Kind regards,

Brett

Thistle flowers certainly attract the insects. Two different species than I took in my last post. Not too BIF for me. Excellent shot.

I find it difficult to critique your macro images Brett without sounding sychophantic. Another great shot. Can you post a couple of rubbish images that I can give some stick so nobody can accuse me of being a creep !! p.s. I'd put one of those bouncy little smiley critters at the end of this but I still haven't worked out how to do it !!!

nicely taken Brett. Perhaps a little large in the frame (or close to the edge of the frame) but an attractive image all the same.

Both major subjects might be a bit tight to the frame sides but that's easy to remedy.

A most accomplished shot imo Brett - much kudos

Thanks for the enquiry , health and temperament are fine TY .
As far as bugs go I like this and me and bug pics don't gel . Works well overall.

Thanks for your comments folks and perhaps I might work on putting a little extra canvas in..

Robert.. you make me chuckle..
Mark - Glad things are good for you and long may it continue..

Regards,

Brett

super image Brett.
