I love those pics, especially the ones where you can see that tiny cluster of red feathers sprouting. (I did not know that patch of red feathers was called a gorget, btw. I learn something new everyday here at DU! )

The horse fly pics were excellent, too, but I prefer to focus on the bird (no pun intended). I appreciate the skill and artistry that goes into insect photos, but I just don't find some of them them that enjoyable to look at. I loved insects and was fascinated with all of them as a kid, but as an adult, certain kinds squick me out just a tiny bit.

The weird thing is, I don't mind spiders at all, and I love snakes - 2 things that creep out a lot of people. Go figure!
