We stopped to catch some shots of a waterfall on the roadside, as I walked towards the waterfall my attention was drawn to this wildflower. It stood so straight and tall and was blemish free. It is called a FOXGLOVE. It blooms in the SPRING of the year April – June. I got up close with my Canon EOS Rebel XT, and watched this ant come out of one petal and took this shot. It was taken with a 18-55 lens, 100 ISO, It was in the shade. This shot was taken as is. Digitalis is a genus of about 20 species of herbaceous perennials, shrubs, and biennials that are commonly called foxgloves. The genus was traditionally placed in the figwort family Scrophulariaceae, but upon review of phylogenetic research, it has now been placed in the much enlarged family Plantaginaceae.[1] The genus is native to Europe, western and central Asia, and northwestern Africa. The scientific name means “finger-like” and refers to the ease with which a flower of Digitalis purpurea can be fitted over a human fingertip. The flowers are produced on a tall spike, are tubular, and vary in colour with species, from purple to pink, white, and yellow. The best-known species is the Common Foxglove, Digitalis purpurea. It is a biennial, often grown as an ornamental plant due to its showy flowers, that range in colour from purples through to whites, with variable marks and spotting. The first year of growth produces only the long, basal leaves. In the second year, the erect leafy stem 0.5-2.5 m tall develops. The larvae of the Foxglove Pug feed on the flowers of Digitalis purpurea. Other Lepidoptera species feed on the leaves including Lesser Yellow Underwing. / The term digitalis is also used for preparations containing cardiac glycosides, particularly digoxin, extracted from plants of this genus. UPDATE: this shot won the award of first runner up in ISP’s amateur photographer of the year competition, held in Las Vegas, Nevada in March 2008. This is an independent judging competition, judged on subject, focus, composition, perspective, clarity, and presentation. August 2007, it was published on the NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC WEBSITE.

Macro of a thirsty- and adorable ant!

I found the ants hiding away in a strelizia flower. There was a small gap and some sticky substance which attracted them to that spot.

Featured in Top Shelf Wildlife & Nature Art August 1, 2009. I have spent countless hours the past 3 summers trying to capture photographs of the ruby-throated hummingbirds that visit my property each year. This particular image is one of my favorites. I loved the way this female (whom I call Ruby) was perched on this branch, with both wings spread, looking down at the ant approaching her little foot. / —-—-—-—-—-—-——- / Camera & Location Details / Canon EOS Rebel XTi with 100-400mm (at 310mm) f/4.5-5.6L IS USM lens. SS 1/800, AP Mode, f/8.0 ISO 200. Photo taken on my property in Prince Edward County, Ontario, Canada / Flat Black Frame & Bright White Matting / / Ruby-Throated Hummingbird info. courtesy of Wikipedia / The Ruby-throated Hummingbird (Archilochus colubris), is a small hummingbird. It is the only species of hummingbird that regularly nests east of the Mississippi River in North America. Ruby-throated hummingbirds are solitary. Adults of this species typically only come into contact for the purpose of mating, and both males and females of any age aggressively defend feeding locations within their territory. The aggressiveness becomes most pronounced in late summer to early fall as they fatten up for migration. This is important because, as part of their migration, they fly non-stop across the Gulf of Mexico, a distance of at least 500 miles. They feed frequently while active during the day and when temperatures drop, particularly on cold nights, they may conserve energy by entering hypothermic torpor. Due to their small size, they are vulnerable to insect-eating birds and animals. Hummingbirds have many skeletal and flight muscle adaptations which allow the bird great agility in flight. Muscles make up 25-30% of their body weight, and they have long, blade-like wings that, unlike the wings of other birds, connect to the body only from the shoulder joint. This adaptation allows the wing to rotate almost 180°, enabling the bird to fly not only forward but also straight up and down, sideways, and backwards, and to hover in front of flowers as it feeds on nectar and insects. During hovering, ruby-throated hummingbird wings beat 55x/s, 61x/s when moving backwards, and at least 75x/s when moving forward. / —-—-—-—-—-—-—- / Bird Gallery / ADD RENEE TO YOUR WATCHLIST

Canon 400D with Canon 100mm f2.8 macro lens (0.0025; F 5.6; ISO 400). Durban Botanical Gardens, KZN, South Africa. / [128 views as of 23/11 2009] / “Ants are so much like human beings as to be an embarrassment. They farm fungi, raise aphids as livestock, launch armies into war, use chemical sprays to alarm and confuse enemies, capture slaves, engage in child labor, exchange information ceaselessly. They do everything but watch television.” / (Lewis Thomas – American Physician and Writer, 1913-1993)
