Excellent closeness and detail - these are a hard species to get close to.

Tiger beetles are extremely active during daytime. However, they do "sleep" at night, individually or in group. Usually we can get as close as we want at night. That's why when we browse tiger beetle images in google we can find many face shots of them.

Cheers,
Jack
