Don't BUG me

Visited "BUGS" at Regent's Park Zoo today.

Saw these tiny red ants in action.

These beautiful little jewel wasps look like they are metallic, but they are real. If you want to know about their dark side visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ampulex_compressa

Strangely and slightly inexplicably fish are included in the exhibition.

These are babies

And this appears to be a kind of clown fish, but I am more used to the orange "Nemo" type, never seen this kind before.

What is quite nice is that a lot of the exhibits ('cept the fish of course) are not behind glass anymore, they find other ways of containing them so you can get quite good non reflective pics.
