I rarely post photos of insects to this blog or to my Flickr page so I thought that I'd post the following ones to give my readers an idea of some of the work I do in insect photography. These shots were made this morning on my deck. I had bought some dill seedling to plant in my herb garden but gave up on that plan when I noticed that they had some insect larvae feeding on them.
The two photos show one black swallowtail butterfly larva or caterpillar feeding on a dill seeding. One shot shows the larva on the plant and the other shows the larva closeup.
The world of insects is fascinating!
Interesting photos! Good comments!
