RE: This Is Not A Macro Photography Post | Photo Gallery
Oh my goodness I love this!!! His post with the dancing beetle was amazing as well... I really need to do gifs, they’re so fun!
It was so funny, we were all just walking along and then spotted her.... like a bunch of kids who had never seen a bug before... they are just so beautiful though!
hahha you tell me we had a roly poly pet for three years, actually @pechichemena named helpie bot after her, Kokeneli and she is indeed featured in one videoclip... We saw her (I say her but no idea, but I'm pretty sure she was a girl you know) grow, and molt, and she never tried to get out of the pot where we planted Suuri Tammi (it's a baby oak tree from an acorn we collected from a famous dying giant oak). So there we were taking like hundreds of pictures of her. And finally moved her to a terrarium where she had fresh moss and bark every week. (and some companions) They all lasted around the same time. But you see, I feel in love with that little bug.
We have had a very cold Spring, and it's weird how butterflies this year are so scarce, with such topsy turvy seasons (very cold in Spain where I live) I wonder... but when we are hiking, every teaser butterfly stops our walk hahaha XD we never tire. Ladybirds are cute... I would never pass one by... I'm glad there are others too.
I just want to add that Kokeneli gives away all the cookies in helpie... Well.. most of them ;) . Very beautiful pictures LL and love to both of you! Cookieeee
