Tiny Beetle
This tiny beetle was sitting on a daffodil that was about ready to bloom. Believe me, I almost overlooked it because it was so small. It was less than 1/64 of an inch long, less than two millimeters!

Thanks, Norm! These were kind of test shots for this week's challenge in TSC group. However, they turned out more on the macro side than what I thought the challenge called for in "shallow depth of field." I have some other ideas, though....

I was guessing that was the case! :-) I'm still pondering what to do.
