This is an HD video of a mosquito sucking blood out of my finger. I shot the video using a Canon 5D Mark II camera body and a Canon MP-E 65mm lens. The mosquito goes from a skinny belly to a fat red blood filled belly in about 2 minutes.

This is a set of macro photographs of a paper wasp on a nest. I took these macro photographs using a Canon 5D Mark II camera and a Sigma 180mm macro lens. I also use a Canon MT-24EX twin flash unit.

Fruit Beetles Grubs are great for larger lizards like Bearded Dragons.They also turn into beautiful beetles, great for kids to keep. The immature stage of the Japaneses beetle - the white grub - typically has a three year life cycle. However, most of the damage to ornamentals and turf grass happens during the spring and fall the second year, when grubs are present in the top inch of the root zone, heavily feeding on grass roots and thatch. In the third year of the cycle, the grubs rise out of the soil as Japanese beetles.
