My Love Affair With My Back Deck

Due to the ongoing problem of something called Covid-19 my main abode for the past 3 or so months has been my own back deck. It has been a pain to do this social distancing thingy but it is a necessary pain, especially for me. The requirements for this distancing and utilizing of masks etc seems to have worked in my part of the world. Our subject area covers a good swath of Northeastern Ontario Canada and has a population of over 200,000 souls. So far (touch wood) we have only had 26 confirmed cases of the virus with no deaths. Also all the confirmed cases have been dealt with successfully. Taint bad when you look at some other areas with the same population numbers in North America. Our reward for being safe and careful and following the directions of our health units.
But by being here on my deck I found an totally new most interesting world all around me to explore with my camera. Miniatuurized in most respects but for the most part very colourful and totally unbelievable in other ways. It gave me the opportunity to try something new rather than chasing egrets and herons and likewise. I know I'm not that good at it but I figured I might as well stick a few pics on line to see if anybody likes them. So I'd appreciate some feed back on these attempts at close-up photography.
