Anilus cristatus
.25 inch red and black nymphs in a large nest about 2 feet long.
Open woodlands/meadow 30 feet from a large lake. In bushes
Nice shots CSM I don't think that bugs are capable of building such a nest. I would suspect that some tent caterpillars had built this nest and the bugs came along later looking for a meal or shelter.
Wow!!!! Fantastic macro!!
Great series and spotting :)
