I've been going through our holiday photos and there are rather too many that look like this ...

One of oh-so-many swallow tails that were just to quick for me |
I am quite gutted how many beautiful butterflies I didn't manage to
capture (and son is gutted by all the grasshoppers that got away). But
here is the edit of those critters that I did manage to snap.
|
I think this one might have been dead! Hue, Vietnam |
| | |
Bees drinking from a lily in a pot pond. Phnom Penh, Cambodia |
|
Well camouflaged and a bit slower than your typical grasshopper, as if crossed with a stick insect. Angkor, Cambodia | | |
|
|
|
Palm crickets from the bamboo train ride, Battambang, Cambodia |
|
|
Dinner crickets, and beetles and small birds. Pursat, Cambodia |
|
|
|
Dragonfly, Angkor, Cambodia |
|
Silk worms, Silk Island, Phnom Penh |
|
We do love a good shield bug, and this is a beauty! Angkor, Cambodia |
|
Ok, so catching them at it was cheating. Angkor, Cambodia |
|
Moths are so much more obliging than butterflies. Note the transparent 'eyes'. These were as big as my hand, and satiated my lepidopteric desires. Angkor, Cambodia |
