Went out tonight to track down some mosquitoes. Taken of my finger at about 2:1. Had to kind of wait to they were on my feet/legs then persuade them that my hand would be a better meal.

The second photograph, viewed in the download format, is excellent.
Well taken.
Hope it did not bite you!

It had been sucking blood for about 10 sec at that point.

Great captures! :thumbup: I dislike these little buggers almost as mush as they love me. I'm so glad I will most likely not have the opportunity to photograph one around here where they are virtually nonexistent ;)

Really nice job. N.Z. I knew I didn't recognize that mosquito.

Mossies here don't carry anything nasty, so it's just an itch and a bite mark for an hour or so.
