Stop Eating my Loblollies - 08-25-2009, 01:46 PM


Redheaded Pine Sawfly larvae, Neodiprion lecontei, munching on some Loblollies I planted. They are not touching the native Loblollies and some planted Virginia Pine.

For the sensitive types, I'm taking care of them.

Nice image, Mike. I like the composition; sharp/clear details.

I think they're kind of cute, especially the two in the foreground. It looks almost like they are hugging. Very nice pic.

Nice shot, Mike. Green is probably my favorite color.

This is one of the reasons I picked the E-510 with the in-body IS. This was shot hand held with an old Olympus OM macro lens. Not bad for no tripod.

Thanks to everybody for looking and comments.
