During my latest walks at the reservoir near home and at my parents house I have taken quite some macros of which I want to show a few today. When I find more time I want to edit the other photos too for another post, maybe even this week 😉
Macro Walks - Insect Macros
#WednesdayWalk
Just a quick and simple post today - I'm very busy at work at the moment and don't have much time to hive. It's a shame that you actually have to work at work 😏 and when I come home late there's often not much time left, like today.

If you look closer at this actually unimpressive bug you will notice a (somehow) beautiful and colorful insect. I have seen this Forest Bug Nymph on a tree in the forest behind my parent's house.

This little Weevil (Pachyrhinus lethierryi) was climbing on a leaf on a bush in my parent's garden and I have seen the little green thing only by accident. The Wevil was very kind to me and waited until I have taken a couple of photos of which a few have even been sharp enough 😁

During a walk at the reservoir near my hometown Klagenfurt I have met this little Wood Ant which had a walk on a big leaf. It was not that far to the ground, but it seemed the little ant was afraid of jumping down the few centimeters - it has found a more comfortable way down a little bit later.

The Ambitious Ant
The ambitious ant would a-travelling go
To see the pyramid's wonderful show.
He crossed a brook and a field of rye,
And came to the foot of a haystack high.
"Ah! wonderful pyramid!" then cried he;
"How glad I am that I crossed the sea!"

The Hoverfly I have photographed in my parents garden. I was already editing the photo today when I saw the post Morning AfterThe Corn Full Moon of my dear friend Jo @redheadpei, who had also a Hoverfly in her post :)
