ID: Cotton stainer bug with termite swarmer(?) catch
Came across this absconding beauty trying its level best to evade us with the heavy catch on its proboscis. Perched on a small sapling, this beauty kept moving from one edge of a leaf to the next, being a tough situation to capture the frame, I finally decided to get a tight frame of it when it stayed kaput for an instance. It had almost tried to hide away the catch by keeping it underneath the leaf, not sure if it was intentionally or due to the weight of the prey.
EXIF:
Canon 550D
Canon 100mm macro
F/16
Shutterspeed 1/160
ISO 1600
Handheld, external flash fired
Location: Nagla trail
