I wish I had seen this post in time to upvote--but it looks like you don't need my little vote. Just want to say that looking at this insect up close and reading your narrative, gives me great respect for life. I don't know if that was your intention, but such a highly specialized creature with a job to do on earth... it's awe-inspiring. Reminds me of a book I read once, On an Acre Shy of Eternity, Micro Landscapes at the Edge, by Robert Dash. Dash takes an electron microscope to his backyard and examines life up close. It's a beautiful, memorable book.
Great post. Glad I stopped by... better late than never, I guess.

hahaha thanks. I am not late to your post though. Was in the middle of reading it then remembered to reply here first. I am glad you enjoyed my post. I wanted to share what I saw the best I could in a fun way.
Oh my, Dash had an electron microscope! They are big machines, but they do capture amazing images you would never expect. It is art on a way different level.
I don't don't know how either one of you manages to get those images. I'm all thumbs with equipment of any kind. But I can appreciate the results :)
