Hello everyone
Good morning, warm greetings to everyone, hunting macro photography with small objects from some small creatures is what I am used to, almost every day I always play in the bushes to hunt several types of insects that like to play in the wild grass and in weathered wood, some of my favorite insect collections I hunt on different days, Of course, these little creatures that I found look very special.

Dragonflies are one of the insect species that belongs to the Odonata nation, if you go to the river bank of course a group of dragonflies of various kinds like to play near the water, because of the place where they lay their eggs and spend their pre-adult years, but I found one of these dragonfly species standing quietly on one of the dead pieces of wood, Of course, it is not easy to photograph dragonflies, because they like to move from place to place and cannot stay in one place.

There are various types of beetles that I know, a few days ago I found one type of horned passalus beetle, one type of beetle that has horns that point forward from its head, this species of beetle has a relatively large body size, interestingly this horned passalus beetle species has a unique voice, namely hoarseness, I was a little amused to see the movement of this species, this beetle makes a sound when its head is facing up, and if you look closely, the sound will be heard.

In the third part I want to show one of the other species, they are often referred to as Shield Ticks which belong to the order Hemiptera, this species often roams in the wild grass and of course I don't have to go far to look for it, because around my house there are a few meters from the front yard of the house growing wild grass, besides that it is not only the Shield Tick that plays there, there are also grasshoppers and the like.

In addition, I also want to invite you to see this one species, black-Kneep konohead is a species of insect that has a very beautiful and shiny color, unfortunately I was only able to capture two pictures of this species, after that he left me just like that.
