Thanks, Tinusbum. They take a bit of time however it helps fill my day with something other than chores that need to be done.

Now that is not a pretty face but a brilliant stack.
Thanks, Brenda. Perhaps there are some faces that are better not to be seen under magnification.

Well around here they can Thanks, Manglesphoto. One thing about chores is that they will always be there and as we age we never know which day might be our last so do what is enjoyable first.

By his face, it’s easy to see that he was pleased (?) to have crossed your path. Well done, as usual.

Amazing stack of a mean-looking creature!
Elliott, if they were the size of dogs we will all need bigger guns..!

Thanks, their mandibles are powerful for their size and I could feel it biting me as I was bringing it in. Other species squirt an acid as a defensive measure like the fire ants and those buggers are ones that one should not attempt to hold.
