Garden wild life June 2023

Good day ,

Time for me to post again in the #photo-essay community ,more garden wildlife today in ultra macro mode ( 2.5x magnification ).

It's my way to start the day go into the garden see what is happening , and try to find living things to take photos of the camera in one hand the coffee in another hand .

Tommorow i will anounce a new contest for the coming week and on Saturday i will post the winners of this weeks #blue-essay contest.

Time for the garden wildlife

This Chrysolina americana - rosemary beetle - Rozemarijngoudhaantje was sitting on a small stone so i picked up the stone and put in the shade so thatthe sunlight wouldn't reflect to much on its metalic shield.
according to wikipedia the Chrysolina americana can reach a length of 5–8 millimetres (0.20–0.31 in) that might give you an idea how small the face is you are looking at right now .
