Y chwilod Lycidae mawr a diddorol hyn (Lycus fernandezi) yn doreithiog yn ne ddwyrain Arizona ychydig wythnosau yn ôl. Yn hedfan yn gyson rhwng blodau a thywod llaith roeddent yn ei wneud ar gyfer targedau ffotograffiaeth hawdd. Meddyliais wrthyf fy hun “dyma gyfle gwych i ddal chwilen yn tynnu oddi arni!”.
Arhoswch amdano…

If it hadn’t been 105 degrees out and I didn’t have a cloud of flies clinging to my face I would have fixed my camera settings and waited for another chance. But this is all my patience could bear – after all it’s just a beetle!
Just a beetle? Blasphemer!
(Nice shot :))
I did gain some massive respect for those tiger beetle photos of yours – those same pools of water were surrounded by thousands of tiger beetles (all the same species it looked like). I couldn’t get close to one!
