Mastodawn

A little tachinid fly (possibly Cryptomeigenia) sitting on a leaf. I love the shape and color of the eyes.

'Raubtier'

Die Fransen-Mordfliege (Choerades fimbriata) gehört zu den Raubfliegen und wird möglicherweise gleich selbst zum Snack eines anderen Räubers: der Listspinne (Pisaura mirabilis).

A beautiful lady and her beautiful children! This was a female argiope argentata (pictured here eating a mealworm I offered to her) that lived in my grandma's garden. She survived the loss of a leg and then a violent storm so I was thrilled to see that no only she was thriving but her babies were born as well 💚

From 2023

While geocaching on a forest trail, near Pitești, we have stumbled upon two male European Stag Beetles (Lucanus cervus), likely battling each other before we disturbed them. After inspecting and photographing them, they have been carefully placed back, as they were found.
