I love these! Never seen most of them.
Is late summer/early fall the best time to visit your part of the country to see them? Or do they appear in the Spring/Summer as well?

I have to say that these photos are outstanding but then again all your photos are. It is photographers like yourself here on UHH that got me interested in this and real close-up photography so I thank you all for that. Again beautiful work. I post most of my photos in the close-up section since they are not quite 1 to 1 photos....Rich

Outstanding! ... and an introduction to some more creatures I'd not known existed.
