Yellow Cactus flower with Leaf Foot nymphs

Yellow Cactus flower with Leaf Foot nymphs
These little horrors "farm" the Cacti and suck the life out of them to almost... but not quite... death. They leave enough for it to grow the next year !

EXPLORED !

A beautifully taken macro, Pam. Great detail and colour, and a thought-provoking note on the logic used by the insects.

Not an insect I've heard of. Hope they haven't destroyed your cacti.
