Hi

I guess that’s the lesser of two weevils (laughing)

Seriously – a great find and a superb image. The only aspect I would probably have changed in this image is the angle slightly, to get rid of that leg appearing from nowhere out of the female’s nose. But that’s very minor and hard to spot at the time, and this is certainly a special shot

All the best
Matthew

I had to look again to realise there are two Weevils, Spring is in the air with these two! Nice behaviour capture Kostas.

It almost looks like an image from a scanning electron microscope. Well done.
