    That is always a good time to catch them.

    Once again, excellent photos of an engaging subject.

    Today, I disovered one in my greenhouse, on the rim of a plant pot that I was about to fill; so as I didn't have a camera nearby, I managed to carefully relocate it to a safer area.

    These two doesn't even to sing for their supper. Wonderful shots, David...the first one should soon be a butterfly if ... oh well, survival of the fittest.

    Once again two intriguing pictures David. They are both either pretty greedy or have collected a takeaway and are on the way home to the family with it

    Nice shots, David. I have to ask though, are these guys dangerous to humans? Do they jump on people and bite?
