Some critters from the last few days, each different and wonderful in their own way.
These baby insects were all sitting on this same blade of grass for at least two days, I wonder where they are now....
I spotted two of these funny stick cocoons perched on top of a couple of straw flowers a few days ago. As I watched they moved a little, something was alive inside! Saturday I found this one with its tiny inhabitant snacking on the daisy. It has also glued some of the petals onto its home, very clever.
Today I couldn't see them until I looked under the two flowers they have been living on. I was amazed to see them carefully hidden on the underside of their respective daisies!

Love the bugs playing follow-the-leader :)
This is excellent photography.
The photo of the "maching ants" is awesome. What a great moment you have there :)
All your critter photos are awsome but I like the little frog the most.
Beautiful pictures, I think my favorite is the line of tiny insects on that blade of grass.
You are so good to me. - thanks for my forewarning email. Even though I know you'd allow me to be exempt from commenting considering the content I simply HAVE to comment on your photo with the ants on the leaves. I really liked that.
WOW! These are up close and personal! A-MAZ-ING!
Such great pics of these critters! I especially love the band of ants marching along the leaf and that stick cocoon is absolutely amazing, I just have to smile at God's wonderful creative power (not to mention His humor, hey?).
You know I just love seeing your critters.. You are so great at macro shots.. I just love them...
So grateful to be the recipient of the fruit of your careful attention. Beautiful and fascinating!
Fantastic shot. I loved them all however the ants that are marching along that leaf are so cute. The dof is amazing. You have so much fun.
Thanks for your visit. So glad you come even when Im away. Its nice to know that friends will.

Those are amazing little creatures! Great shots.
I love the view you have on your garden critters. The photos are WONDERFUL thanks for sharing!
I have to say, your macros make the insects beautiful and very interesting. Cheers, Ruby
Oh my! These are incredible! These photos totally make me want to delve into the world of macro photography. Thanks for sharing! :D
I'm telling you, that new lens is perfect - of course, the person behind the lens makes the magic.
Love all your captures, the frog is my favourite, love the detail in his eye!
Oooh...I love your photos!! I love the little guys on the blade of grass!! Great capture!! May I ask what lens you are using for these photos?? (I am just a beginner!)
Thank you!!
Hi Sweet 7D, thank you for your wonderful comments.
In answer to your question about my lens, it's a Raynox conversion macro lens. I've only had it a few weeks and have a post on it here

You will also see my camera which isn't a DSLR . Within the post is a link with more details on my camera also.
Karen, I am very impressed with your macrophotography. I have been looking back from March 18 entry and like all of your photos, but was specially impressed with these ones. Good work! - Dave
I'm stunning.
The crown rider :-)
The cute frog
the funny picture of the baby insects and ...
You're a good observer and photografer.
Oh my word, your photos are INCREDIBLE!!!! I have been noticing more and more critters coming out now that it's springtime. I found a tiny turtle on my sidewalk this afternoon and had to run back inside to grab my camera! Critters make such good subjects! :)
Just beautiful captures, I adore photographing bugs, they are so interesting!! The frog is too cute as is the marching bugs on the leaf! (Love)
Each photograph is a feast to the eyes! One delight is followed by the next! All I can say is WOW!
The caterpillar and his camouflage is quite interesting!
