It's a boy.....
by

While creeping about in the garden early
this morning a noticed a new rose leaf with
dew on the tips of the leaves - preparing to
photograph it I noticed these greenfly -
taking the plant indoors and through the lens
I saw the mother greenfly giving birth - how
many other people have had this dubious pleasure!

See the rest of the birth on http://www.pbase.com/anniekerridge/greenfly

A wonderful image - well composed, sharp, great background - and how considerate of the greenfly to give birth on a complementary coloured leaf!

Thats a neat catch!
I hope none stayed inside to eat your house plants!

I can't say I like the subject but the image is exceptional. Very clear and crisp even to the cobweb. .......Jess
