Nature at its best!
And only a prude would think them greasy!
I was thinking food! :D
Haha! I didn't have any food pics ECL!
Funny sight and I learned some new slang! First one I've seen so far that didn't feature food.
Happy Weekend Jams!
Awwww they are making wee beetles!
I didn't know the act was called greasy. Now I do. ;)
Have a fabulous weekend.

hahahaha..never heard that called greasy before.. Great take on the theme!!
Glad to be of service!
On my little phone screen, I at first thought they were Ladtbirds. These ones are also very pretty. Here in Australia we have some beautiful creatures called 'Christmas beetles'. They are bluey greeny irridescence. They also fly as if intoxicated - fast and crashing into everything. Ladybirds, however, as found in England remain my favourite bug,
Ah Christmas betles sound great. I must look them up. Lily beetles are an import. The little bastards feed on lilies and fritilarias,,, gits!
Nice one :-) I struggled with the theme too...
The colours are wonderful. I'm wondering how long you had to wait for them to get into position?
Hi jams --
Ohhh, you have photos of insect porn too! I say "too" because I've come across quite a number of different kinds of bugs doing what comes naturally over the course of my Hong Kong hiking. Do a search on my blog for spiders, grasshoppers, butterflies, dragonflies, etc. should you be so inclined! ;D
I did a quick search Jams and I couldn't find a decent picture of one of the bluey greeny (and goldy, come to think of it) ones as I described. Apparently there are many types. Wikipedia shows a rather dowdy brown one.
Now I'd like to catch a shot of one. . . maybe next Christmastime.
Ha, that's a fun take on the theme.
Maybe they are greasy too if you try eating one ;)
Didn't know this meaning, I would have been embarrassed to watch, lol.
Happy weekend!
greasy...
that is so cool and love your different take on the theme.
haha thats nature at work! =)
Thanks everyone!
Just call it insect porn and be done with it.
Haha Colin!
Good shot and great job at stretching the theme!
Have a super weekend.
Haha it was the best I could do this week JDEQ!
Great shot. I went all insectish as well :)
Great minds think alike!
