Couple of shots from a recent visit to France taken on a D70 with Sigma f2.8 105mm macro.
Asian hornet looking menacing! (f11 @ 500th)
Dead wasp being eaten by very tiny ant-like creatures. (f3.5 @ 200th)

Nice Quality pictures Ken
Been thinking about getting the Nikon 105 f2.8 Ken, Not sure on the differences between the sigma and the nikon versions, I am sure they are both great lenses though the current sigma 105 f/2.8 is a bit more money.

Is that a new outfit Ken?. Nice shot by the way I would not want too get to close to that. 105 is the way

Cheers, all!
They really are the tiniest ants I have ever seen. When you consider that wasp is, say 1.5cm long, just look how many of these tiny creatures are scuttling all over its carcase in this slightly more revealing pic (better d of f). So if the wasp is 1.5cm how big does that make the ants!
Same outfit as before but with flash. f8 at 250th.

In Bedfordshire on Wednesday, must be a stop-off on a migration route.
First time I've seen one in the UK.
Made my year

Well spotted Keebs, excellent Osprey Shot.
I have seen them twice in Norfolk about this time of the year, they do tend to stop for a feed up while migrating over the Norfolk Broads.
Would love to get a good shot like yours

If we are talking about rare bird sightings driving back from Turvey one afternoon I spotted a Macaw sitting up in a tree as calm as you like. Somebody had lost a very expensive pet.
