The winds dropped today and I managed to find this in the jungle, commonly called a garden.

Still, I wouldn't have liked to have done that shot with my 35mm macro! How big are they and how close did you have to get? I assume you used your 90mm?
This beetle was about an inch long. I used some tubes as well to get that close in.

ID yet to be confirmed but I think it is a dusky honeyeater.

Great shots Clarky, especially as they tend not to stay still for any length of time

Nice shots, getting a bee to stay dead still is near impossible, Practice practice.some you win some you lose.

Thanks tracey.
They are quite small compared to the european wasp but still capable of
a sting or two.
