A bit of fun today on my day off.
Closeup crop of a bigger timelapse movie of aphids
on some thistle weed.

I had a bit of a google about aphids...quite incredible creatures,
apart from being a garden and farm pest...some species are
parthenogenic, ie they can reproduce asexually. Some species
can even have a female daughter developing inside a mother
and a daughter inside that daughter developing! Called telescopic
generation....wow!
