Photo Adventures with Curiosity and Learning
Got up early this morning and left for the Botanic Garden about 6:45. Waited forever for bus 111 - it seems. I was trying to capture early morning insect behavior - thinking dragonflies and damselflies would be sleeping - wrong!!! Here is a grasshopper with missing right leg
A white flower
A red dragonfly
She jumped from plant to plant
And an Argiope with no web decorations (stabilimenta)
A very patient damselfly
A tan dragonfly
View of the compound eye structure
A closer view
From behind
Damselfly eyes
Looking head on - reflection of my ring flash
Damselfly
Two spiders - I think both are female
The far spider
The near spider
A different view
The far spider
Walking back to the bus stop - Heliconia
