A short legged insect, wings down, creeps up a tall bare stems of bamboo. A blurred white wall is in the background

Yellow-striped flutterer (Rhyothemis phyllis) #BlueSkyMonday #MacroMonday I'm claiming this as macro, because I had my 90mm macro lens mounted at the time and had no choice #photography #insects #dragonfly #flying #EastCoastKin

Looking up almost vertically, a yellow-striped flutterer dragonfly is caught overhead in flight against white clouds and blue sky

Several sherical drops of water on a thin horizontal leaf. The background is blurred. The largest drop of water shows an inverted image of a shed outline against the sky.

As a brief respite from the never-ending bugs - some #lichensubscribe for #macroMonday. #Derbyshire, May 2025.

#macrophotography

Towering cliff covered in strange, scaly, pale blue-green-grey growths, topped by brown-green vegetation with pendulous stalks above. Actually, some lichen and moss on a wooden gate post.

Another cool find in my garden today: the weirdest looking ant I've ever found.

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/286181482

A new species for me, and a new species record for my garden, now at 13 Ants, 149 Hymenoptera, and 514 Insect species/taxa.

Feels a bit of a cheat for #MacroMonday, when it was actually just a close focused shot with a 70-300mm - but a small subject all the same. An Anise Swallotail. #Butterfly #Nature #FujiFilm #XT5

An Anise Swallowtail, a large butterfly with yellow and black patterned wings, the black extend out at the back like a swallow. Alos has blue spots, and black, red and yellow eye-like coloring at the back of the tail close to the body. Out of focus dry grasses in the background.

Monday? More miscellaneous May #macrophotography! Marvellous.

Moth: no idea. There's hundreds of 'em!
Metallic fly: Probably a blow-fly, maybe Lucilia sp.?
Snooty fly: Perhaps Rhagio scolopaceus?
Bee: Mining or mason bee, potentially Andrena sp.? (Don't tell the poor thing about the Cuckoo wasps, anyhow...)

#moths #flies #bees #macroMonday #Derbyshire

Small white moth, beady black eyes and holding on to a vertical stem of grass, seen partially from underneath.

Glossily metallic blue-green fly with red-brown eyes, on a large, sunlit green leaf.

Stern-looking grey-brown fly with spotted wings, holding on to green grass, peering rather snootily at the camera.

Small, dark bee in spring sunshine on a broad, pointed leaf.

A week ago we went to the #Ottawa #tulip festival on cold and blustery day. The flowers had been battered by the weather a bit, and it was already late in the season so they were starting to show their age. But it was fun trying to capture their grace under pressure #MacroMonday #MayBlooms #Vivid
