The dark-edged bee-fly (Bombylius major) are about now in the UK and through until late June. A bee-mimic with a long straight proboscis used for feeding (not stinging). They're good pollinators. Pictured today, Lamplighters Marsh NR, Bristol (26.03.26). #invertebrate #insectphotography #ukwildlife

Spotted A Black Potter Wasp
Delta pyriforme
A species of Delta

Distinctive in its solitary lifestyle, black potter wasp has some fascinating behaviors. It notably shapes clay nests in the form of elegant pots—a feat of nature's engineering in the insect world.

A close-up side profile of a Giant Owl Butterfly resting vertically on the textured brown bark of a tree. The butterfly’s wings are closed, revealing a complex pattern of fine, wavy cream and dark brown lines. A large, prominent circular eyespot dominates the lower wing, featuring a black centre ringed with bright yellow and a blue iridescent crescent. The background is a soft, out-of-focus mix of green leaves and bright bokeh light, creating a warm, tropical atmosphere.

A split second.
Light, life, and perfect timing.

Nature never rushes —
yet everything happens exactly when it should.

Was out this weekend and got some shots at the Butterfly Pavilion in Colorado.

Also found that damselfly back home which I thought was too cool not to include. Nature sure is beautiful.
