Robbers

[woodsac]

Robber Flys. Very interesting to watch. They catch their prey in the air. All of these were less than 1" long. For the ones that are eating, their meals were tiny!

The robber in #4 actually dropped that meal, flew off and came right back with the meal in #5. Landed on the same leaf and acted like nothing happened. The whole thing happened in about 2 seconds

Many, many thanks!

I never thought I'd say it...but I can't wait till spring when the bugs come out again! Maybe it's the challenge, but I really, really enjoy doing bug and flower macro :thumbup:

Hey woodsac,
How can you do such closeups man. You should be sacked for keeping secrets. Share them too.
