Callibaetis May Fly sitting pretty on the water.

 

 

Posing Damsel. Little buggers love to pose.

Hope you all enjoy and comments are always welcomed.

Great shots! That first one is something! I like the color in the last one, blue damsel on yellow background with red dot of a bug; nice composition.

Those things must have been swarming!

Thanks Kirk--That first shot is my all time favorite. It all came together just right. We get a really good hatch of Damsels which last about 6 weeks. During the heaviest they do swarm and they love to eat Callibaetis. To get one on a fly line was very sweet. I didn't know the Damsel had the little red bug on him until I got it on the computer. Just added to the shot.

 

Redneck--hope the bugs work on the tying some up. Have to post some of your results.

 

Hounddog appreciate the comments on the Mayfly.

 

Thanks again guys for the comments and kind words!!

Great shots. The first one is amazing. It is not everyday one gets to witness bugs eating. I'm usually concentrated on what is eating bugs. The life cycle continues.
