Here is part 2 of this little series, where I visited family in Iowa last summer. I spent what time I could lurking around the porch light at night (which brought in far too many flying lots of insects, as the fam. would most definitely remind me). This will be a short post, but I have Big Spiders for Part 3.
Tachinid fly,
Genea sp.

Crocus Geometer Moth,
Xanthotype sospeta. This one got away from me the night before, but it came back the next night.

Marbled Orbweaver (I think).
Araneus marmoreus . But it could be a Cross Orbweaver.

All nice but that first image is stunning.
These are some new models for me. My compliments for your usual excellent photography.
Congratulations on submitting some incredible photos.

When one looks at these fine interesting photos from the Art and Engineering perspective they generate Why and How questions.
