Critters Big and Small Vol. 9
DWM, your macro shot of the spider(s) is awesome!
wow....very awesome! lol
Fantastic macro, DWMike!!!
Good eye, Kim. I'm sure he wasn't easy to spot in the water.
I found this little I believe, garter snake, warming up on the side of the road.
These trio were in the potato field, (twins).
....
Found this big flesh fly on my fishing boat. This is a 40% crop of the original image
Very nice pix of the deers burn, Mike, I give! What kind of camera do you've please. Your pics. of the little critters are out of this world!!!! That fly is scary looking.
Well thank you very much, I am glad you like them. I enjoy macro, it is my "relax" time.... I shoot a Canon Rebel XSi 450D and most all my macro shots are with my Sigma 150mm f/2.8 APO DG HSM EX Macro lens, with a Canon Speedlite 430EX flash mounted on a modified flash bracket with a homemade diffuser to tone down the highlights on the critters.
Thanks and y'all keep those critter pics coming!!
Burn...nice snake shot and I love the trio! DH has seen one with twins but I have just seen our single. We usually have 2 large does one always has triplets and one that has twins in our area.

A Syrphid Fly - (Syritta pipiens) on a Coreopsis flower
Same Syrphid Fly - (Syritta pipiens) on a different perch. This is a crop of the original image to show the detail in the eyes.
What's incredible detail on those pics. DWM! Wow!
Shows how incredibly equipped even the small creatures are! Great photos DWM!
Nanny, your deer are cute!
Wow Mike!
Amazing shot DWM. love the details of the fly. Glad to know the type of equipment you use.
Thanks Kim and Nanny. I was wondering, what Nanny`s Doe was munching on. I have never seen an Okra plant, It sounds very scrumptious.
I found this clear-winged Moth, on some wild flowers. He didn`t stick around long enough for photos opportunity.
Thank you to all for the wonderful comments....burn_2007 Nice capture!!.. and you're right these things are always on the move.
Just got this one this afternoon on my bachelor buttons. Thank you for looking.
Jagged Ambush Bug (Phymata spp.) with prey (sweat bee)
Jagged Ambush Bug (Phymata spp.) with prey (sweat bee). This is a slight crop of the original.
Wow, that Jagged Ambush Bug looks like a crab.
That's one interesting Ambush bug there Mike! Wow. Bernadette, it does resemble a crab in someway. What's great photography!
nanny_56....the deer are pruning the okra....(~; ...that helps it produce more and makes it easier to pick. LOL
I will pass that info on to my neighbor!! lol
Have to say I had no idea what kind of plan it was either. I had asked my DH and he was clueless too.
