Thank you Cindy. So glad you like my page. Insects are the world's most unique treasures.
I'm so glad to hear it's yours. How cool I liked your page without knowing whose it was! Awesome hopper.
Thank you Cindy, Insect World is my Facebook page about insects. I put lots of my own pictures and pictures from the internet if they are about a subject I'm presenting. I try to give the credits on those whenever they are available.
It looks like Insect World Mundodeinsectos posted this on their facebook page but your name isn't mentioned.
Es difícil de fotografiar criaturas tan pequeñas, me estoy poniendo bizco. Pero son tan adorable, yo no resito. :)
