Hello friends,
Subject: Duo of insects/ arachnids
Starts: August 10th 2020
Rules: Image must be taken by you. (You have rights over the image).

Ends: August 24th 2020 at 11:59 pm

As we are in summer time, insects are all over the fields. So I was thinking how about a new theme called "DUO" where you can exhibit your wonderful encounters of 2 insects together. I feel that when there are 2 insects in the same place, the photo gains that "je ne sais quoi" and makes it even more attractive.
Here is my proposition of a cute Duo of meliteae butterflies taken this spring.

Best of luck to all of you.

Example:

A proposition...
it's not a duo, but a trio of hoverflies

We'll make an exception for this time but please try your best to post photos where there are 2 insects or arachnids.
This photo is really beautiful and you were even luckier to have 3 insects around the same flower; especially while flying - not an easy task indeed. I can only applaud your success.
Congrats.

Sorry, I sinned by excess!
No problem, I have others ... with only 2 ;-)

I knew I had the same with two instead of three!

Hi folks, brand new member here, so this is my first post here. I don't know my way around yet, but I hope I have done this right...
This is a pair of Fruit Flies around 2mm in length all the way from Oz.
