There a loads of Humming Bird Hawk Moths were I am at the moment. I've taken about 100 photos of the little beggars, and finally got one in focus!
I'm loving this macro photography and seem to be leaning towards insects for some reason.

Great shot, macro photography is really tricky but great when you get it right. I wish I had more time to dedicate to practising it.

The Aveyron area of France. It's the most beautiful countryside I've ever seen, and the birds, butterflies, bees and other insects are in total abundance, along with lizards, bullfrogs, weird moths and all sorts.
Thoroughly recommend this area if you're into your fauna and flora.
We've visited all the "Frances Beautiful Villages" within an hour's drive from our gite, which is a 2 minute drive from Najac.
Whilst I'm at it, here's another creature!

Looking forwards to my surprise! Yes, I've done lots of thinking. The same thing happens every time I go on holiday. You know what that means?!!

Decent timelapse but you really need more dramatic cloud formations!. Also if you have a dark night area you may get some good star timelapses. As for 1:12

Speckled wood

The orange butterfly looks like a Large Skipper. Don't know Bee Flies I'm afraid. Just come back from the Rockery after taking Og around. He says it's looking fantastic. You can't argue with that!
