Tasty feast!
Hoverfly thingy...well a canny mind away back to last year lol
(Pardon the Scottish Accent)
Thanks Snappy - bit kinky using mirrors :-)
This one is an insect photo Linda. We had the annual rising of the flying ants (including from our garden) and the gulls flocked to the feast! If you look carefully in the top right hand corner, you can see a flying ant about to meet his end courtesy of this BH gull !
I was going to put this in 'Spiders', but apparently it isn't. It is an Opilone - possibly a Harvestman, (Dicranopalpus Ramosus).
Although it could be something totally different ...
Fantastic detail!
Great macro BD, don't think I have seen one of them.
ooh, never seen one of those before, great photo BD and I wouldn't have a clue as to its ID. !!
