@vonny,
vonny, I like the toitle. Glad to see that no felines are hitching a ride on it. Also glad you got it the size you want. If you're concerned or unsure about the size, why not try "preview" and see what the size is? The bird is a stunner. Thanks mucho.
FBM, The first moth strikes my fancy. Polka dots. Is the caterpillar a pre-moth? The second moth must hang out on trees. It looks woody. The mystery beetle-like creature has an interesting necklace type of thing. My favorite is the katydid. It has personality. Thanks for them all.

The moth was a Tortricid, but it takes microscopic examination of the genitalia to be any more specific.
You're looking at bug naughty bits under a microscope?
A bug was hiding from you, and we get to see a plant stalk with scrawny legs sticking out. Maybe the bug values its privacy.
I had an encounter with a couple of basenjis a while back. They are regal and beautiful. Also bigger than you might imagine. Although they're barkless, they do make noise. I'm especially enamored of their curly tails:
One reason I stopped hunting and fishing and started photographing was that it enabled me to "take" without really taking...
