Description


Thanks for viewing, comments are appreciated :o) - Im sorry, i think i didnt express myself correctly when i said you could ask for an upload. I meant general things like sunset or bugs or landscapes, etc... You can still ask ofcourse and i will upload it if i have a reasonable shot of it but i think you all overestimate the size of my archives lol :o) Thanks for your input anyway !! :o) @jcv2: im sorry im dutch too and the Zacryptocerus is a subtropical ant genus :o) @pimbotin: dont have the moro-sphynx either, only saw it flying around once or twice... @shortgrey: i dont think we have fireflies here, sorry... @addiek: sorry, dont have those either... - This is a Click Beetle, probably Athous haemorrhoidalis. < When beetles land flat on their back, it is very difficult for most of them to get back on their feet. Many bugs die that way. Some beetles however do have a special hinch between belly and breast. It sends them quite high into the air, allowing them to turn around before getting back on earth. As they do this with a clicking sound, they are called Click Beetles. > ~info: http://www.gardensafari.net Hope you like :o) - Thanks for all your wonderful comments on my last upload, "Macro Drama" !!

I think the grass he's clinging onto is really pretty up close! Beautiful greens, and I like the movement (well suggested movement) in this photo. Brilliant =) ps...in that case, ignore what I just wrote on your "macro drama" O,O

Wow, this is amazing! A click beetle! I am impressed by the wide variety in this creation every time again! Incredible! A hinch a bit like a grasshopper. Lying on your back? Press eject and land on your feet again! LOL! Excellent work, Jeroen, far better than any ant!

EH EH EH (sarcastic laugh)... I knew I was asking for something very difficult. Andr(zulaan) told me that taking shots of this insect was more a hunting and a pursue than a standard exercice and I beleive him cause I've tried a couple of times. Anyway, even if you don't have the complete collection of creatures on earth, your gallery is something I've never seen before...
