“The Runway Sprint”
Caught these Sandhill Cranes mid-stride along the Platte River. To get those massive wingspans airborne, they need a running head start. #SandhillCrane #Migration #Nebraska #BirdsInFlight

“Roseate Spoonbill in Flight”
Low light + Roseate Spoonbill = Pure magic. I almost didn't take this shot because the sun was so low, but the backlighting saved the day. #BirdsInFlight #DingDarlingNWR #RoseateSpoonbill #Photography

Pair of Drosophila melanogaster on the rim of a compost container in my kitchen. Not many insects this time of year. Getting my feet wet with image stacking macro images. First attempt.

A fly looks obliquely toward you, its compound eye a hypnotic maze of black and electric green.
If you gaze into its eyes long enough it eats your soul.

Right quarter profile view of a small, pinned robber fly (Asilidae) on a white background. The body is black with thick pale yellow setae on the face, thorax, and forming apical bands on the abdominal segments. The legs are very bristly and are mostly orange. The large eyes are dark with a faint purplish tinge.
Perfect. Predaceous. Puppy.
Bycatch* collected this summer in Arizona.
(*bycatch because it was caught during Bee Course and bees were the primary target, I guess)

A plump white crab spider is perched on purple penstemon flowers eating prey while 3 tiny flies are on its body and leg hoping for a bite of its prey.
