Can't wait to see what you find next!
Awesome picsActually went out and bug hunted for the first time in a while. The next update in this thread will hopefully be interesting. I’m going to the Dominican Republic next week and will try to take lots of bug photos! As of right now, these are all from my yard in North Carolina View attachment 455713 View attachment 455714 View attachment 455715 View attachment 455716 View attachment 455717 View attachment 455718 View attachment 455719 View attachment 455720 View attachment 455721 View attachment 455722
You WOULD have a favorite mite, LoL. That line belongs in the "Say Something Random" thread...Next is my favorite mite..
Haha thank you! It is not as easy as it looks, I delete over 70% of the images I take, these are just the few I thought looked good enough lol! And yes, that is very “me” to have a favorite mite, but look how pretty they are!There's a few guys on here whose photos I REALLY look forward to seeing, & your high on that list. You've a phenomenal instinct for it, it's as though they pose for you, LoL

Amazing such great detail. Almost looks like something you would find in the ocean.This isn’t a bug but I went outside and found a sporophyte from some moss and photographed it. The first image is the sporophyte glued to the end of a tiny needle, for size reference. The second is the sporophyte at 10x View attachment 460753 View attachment 460754
They're probably not iridescent to other bugs as their vision doesn't function like ours.What would be the advantage or benefit of the iridescence for the springtails? Any thoughts?
