Description
One more of about 10 shots I took before I noticed that their behavior had changed and they were starting to buzzzz past me quite loudly. I took that as a warning and slowly backed off. LOL
I know this was a little crazy but I couldn't resist. :-) The closest I got was about 4 feet and I used my zoom on my Pentax Optio MX4.
Thank you all so much for your comments on my last bzzzzzz picture and I hope you enjoy seeing these little buggers up close and personal. ;-)
((((hugs)))) and have a great Thursday!

What makes it for me here is the compo! Now, I have to say that once again, I don't like the frame! But it's just a matter of taste as ya know! ;)
