Praying Mantis
Came across this beautiful but deadly Mantis in France and he loves to be shared here 🙂
The Mean Machine
Now i understand where Disney got its inspiration for the mean grasshopper in A Bug’s Life 🙂
A Big Visitor
Today this big visitor decided to come in and enjoy some fresh green leaves. After taking some pictures, i had to take this big hopper outside. Otherwise the plant wouldn’t survive 🙂
Hoppin’ Red
Came across this red grashopper. A few months ago i didn’t even knew they existed in the Netherlands, but this fellow is showing they’re here 🙂
The Painted Lady
This beautiful butterfly is now frequently visiting the Butterfly bush in the front garden.. and she’s actually called Painted Lady in English 🙂 Latin name is Vanessa cardui
The Dragon is back
It’s been quite a while since the last blog. But picked up the camera again and it felt good. Such an amazing sight to see a Dragonfly up close..
Beautiful demoiselle mating
A close-up of the mating of a male (blue) and female (green) Beautiful Demoiselle. Latin name is Calopteryx virgo
A Butterfly
Probably my best shot so far of a butterfly 🙂
Don’t know the exact name of this butterfly. Probably a Nymphalidae, Heliconiinae / Argynnis
