Description

I wanted these two to come so much closer for an image of better resolution but they seemed to have other things on their minds. :-) They did lift off several times as a "unit" but never came within a better range and the plants were on a steep embankment which was not negotiable (by me anyway!).

WOW! you sure got an AWESOME shot of those little ones considering the awkward situation you were in!! I had the comfort of lying on my belly when I captured mine in mate mode! LOL You got my vote:-)))))) F/V !!

Thanks Shamik. I just went to see your image and left a comment. Yours is terrific! Lying on one's belly is not the most comfortable position either I find. :-)
