Beautiful series, Maximilian.

I suppose this is a female holly blue (celastrina argiolus):

 

[Maximilian]

Here I suppose this is a large skipper (ochlodes sylvanus).
3rd and 4th pic look almost the same. But one has the focus on the head/proboscis and the other on the wing.
Feel free to chose which you like more. I am undecided.

Very nice shots, Maximilian. I really like the 3rd picture of the female Holly Blue.

 

[Maximilian]

Some green veined whites (pieris napi) taking care about reproduction.

 

[Nemorino]

I suppose this is a female holly blue (celastrina argiolus):

Of cause female because in the third picture it is ovipositioning.
Probably the same species and also ovipositioning in the first two pictures. The third is in another place and a different day.

Maximilian and Nemorino,

Very nice pictures. Well done, guys.

Of cause female because in the third picture it is ovipositioning.

I was guessing more about the species, not the gender

 

[Maximilian]

A ringlet (aphantopus hyperantus).

Beautiful shots, Maximilian. I especially like the first one.

 

[Maximilian]

A female common scorpionfly (panorpa communis).
If you want to know why they are named like that, look at my wiki hyperlink and how the males look like
Second pic is not perfect, but I wanted to show how the abdomen and especially the head looks like.

 

[Maximilian]

Some grasshoppers.

 

[Nemorino]

Peleides blue morpho
R5 + RF100L
Stack of 16 pictures

1/3200, f/5, Iso12800

The damages of the wings have not been made by birds because the butterflies live in a tropical hall of a local zoo.
