I’ve often mentioned my green lynx spiders in this blog. This is the time of year where they really start to get interesting, because by early fall, the spiders are getting pretty big. I caught this pretty cool shot of one of my big girls eating a wasp. That seems like pretty dangerous prey because, well, wasps are killers too. But the green lynx can handle them just fine. I’ve also seen the eating great big bumble bees. (more…)
For the past couple of years we’ve been bringing a few extra special black swallowtail caterpillars inside to raise “by hand”. Why do we do this? For one thing, it’s fun. For another, as I believe I’ve mentioned before, we hate see all of our black swallowtail caterpillars get eaten, and when we leave them outside, most of them end up as someone’s dinner.
Raising black swallowtail caterpillars is pretty easy. In case anyone wants to try it, I’ll boil it down into a few steps. (more…)
I’ve been staking out our hummingbird feeder with my digital camera zoomed in as close as it can go. The feeder is on the front porch, so I can set on the porch swing with the camera on the tripod, waiting, watching. It’s not easy to get a decent picture. Even though I’m only on the other side of the front porch, for something as small as a hummingbird, that’s pretty far. I did finally get a reasonable pic, though.

A decent action shot, but you can’t make out his color at all. I won’t be winning any awards for this one.
