Three from a cold 5 minutes today

Paul Iddon

It was almost too cold to hold the camera, so I was in the garden for just five minutes. In that short period, I became even colder, the bonkers Bilbo Baggins (our cat) decided to jump onto the roof of the bird table, and I snapped 3 different bugs before scooting back in for hot brew...

All on the 70D with Venus 60mm at f/11, 1/160sec, ISO 125.

So we have a bark fly and a drain fly on the compost bin, and globular springtail on a fallen leaf.

Lovely captures Paul - pretty sure #1 is a jumping plant louse (Psyllidae)

Paul,

Nice work. The moth fly/drain fly came out specially well.
