I DON'T HAVE MUCH TO SHOW YOU TODAY

I had some stuff to do, places to go, and people to visit, so I had barely enough time to prepare this short post today.

You'll see only a couple of insects and one single plant here. In this opening shot, I'm presenting a bushcricket nymph. Leptophyes punctatissima is the name of this species from the Tettigoniidae family.

(Enlargeable)

Here you can see a fly from the Empididae family.

(Enlargeable)

Empis tessellata is the name of the species. Adult males and larvae are predatory, while the adult females feed mainly on nectar. Mainly, but not only. Before mating, males present a 'gift' to the female. The nuptial gift is a dead insect that the female gladly consumes.

(Enlargeable)

Here you can see another predatory fly. This one belongs to the Asilidae family. Can't tell you the name of the species because several very similar ones can be found here in my area.

(Enlargeable)

The fly shown in these two photographs has caught a froghopper from the Cercopidae family.

Here you can see the only plant included in this post.

Here you can take a better, more up-close look at the tiny fruits of a plant from the genus Scabiosa of the Caprifoliaceae family. Can't tell you what species exactly is this.

AND THAT'S IT. AS ALWAYS HERE ON HIVE, THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE MY WORK - THE END.

Fantastic shots. You took these shots I the night or you edited to a dark background?

That second to fifth photo of a fly looks like a dragonfly.

I took them during the day. The dark background and the studio-like light were achieved with an external flash connected to the camera.

Okay, that is awesome. I would have loved to learn this trick if I had a camera.

Wow this is some fantastic perspective and wonderful detail! The dark background makes those little doods pop right off the picture.
