Macro on Monday - Guess What

Once more my congratulations and a   gold star  go to Anon in Minnesota, Adrian, Jan, Keith and Wilma who correctly identified the developing frog spawn in last week's mystery photo.

P1030547c

P1030548

The photo was taken late in the day and the spawn appeared brown under the low angle of sunlight. With all the warm weather here in the past week many of them are now freely swimming tadpoles.

I wonder what you will make of this week's puzzle photo
Guess What:
P1030540

If you need a clue: It won't be slithering across the rockery.

No prizes - just for fun.

  1. Hello again, John - good clue! This one is easy as it can be seen in my garden too – one of my favs. It's the Snake's Head Fritillary Fritillaria meleagris.
