I Photographed Evidence Of Maternal Instincts In Insects
ФОТО: boredpanda.com

Halfway through September of 2017, I was photographing insects and spiders at my local arboretum when I stumbled upon a colony of oak treehoppers. Oak treehoppers were on my bucket list of insects I was dying to find and photograph so I was THRILLED to have found a colony of nymphs (immature insects)! As I photographed the nymphs, I noticed a single adult a few inches away on the same twig.

I later learned this was mama treehopper watching over her young. .
