Description

These guys love to take you in their arms (and no, it's not to welcome you). Look at those mandibles. Does he look as he will discuss? Nah. So if you're a small fly or another species who's on his list - run! ;) They're hard to photograph because they're a) very small (compare with the leaf!!), b) very shy and c) they rarely stand still for even a second... I want to thank you for your comments, ratings and favs on my dunnock pic, I'm glad you like it as much as I do. It's one of those pics one can see that animal photography is not "see and shoot" but patience and much luck ("to be at the right place at the right time"). :)

Have a nice day! Regards, Karsten
