But still both shots are very sharp and the composition is good enough!Smile

Guess it was a Mayfly that coined the phrase "live fast and die young".

I like the two lizards holding hands in the second shot the best.

Atlas Moth... 5 days? Hardly worth the effort.

Mayflies have the shortest lifespan of all animals. There are over 2,500 species.
They have a life expectancy ranging from just half an hour to one day, depending on their species.
Their sole purpose in life is to hatch, and reproduce.

This Atlas moth has a wingspan
the size of a large dinner plate but only lives about 5 days after
emerging from its cocoon. This pic was taken with the moth housed
in a mesh enclosure. Lizards are housed in a glass terrarium like enclosure
to simulate their natural conditions in the wild. Next time I'm taking a spray
bottle of Windex to clean the damned glass! DSC_2430-2-1.jpgDSC_2437-1.jpgDSC_2556-1.jpgDSC_2517-1.jpg
