June 06 - Wounded

This poor moth only had wings on one side.
When he tried to fly he just spun around in a little circle.
He probably has been eaten by now.

What a sad story, those eyes look a bit diabolic, great close up Neal. Alison

Insect.
One evening, out for a fly in the sky, I was gulped down a redstarts throat. It was nearly dark. I tried to back out, but it kept gulping and gulping til i got tired and sleepy, and gave in. It's stomach smelt faintly of pickles, and that was my last memory.

poor guy but super shot.

He probably lasted as long as he did because he blends so well with his surroundings. Poor thing! How observant of you to spot him. Another cool shot, Neal!

Another super macro, he's probably bird food.

Well done.

Yikes Neal...........doesn't it give you nightmares getting this 'up close and personal' with bugs?? You're right, he's probably been polished off by a bigger critter by now but I can assure you, I wouldn't even want to touch him, never mind eat him!! ~V~
