Snacking on Aphids [Details & Macro Nature Photography and Landscapes]
Uploaded: April 07, 2005 07:14:31
This is a macro shot of this lady bug enjoying the tiny aphids seen in the light green cluster on the edge of the leaf. The lady bug looks like it's wiping it's mouth before grabbing another one!
Taken yesterday afternoon on over cast day, mini tripod used, camera on auto macro.
