Yes, the combination of mandibles and tongue is quite interesting. Wait 'til you get a look at

My first macro lens was an SMC Macro Takumar 50mm f4, which I think has the same optical formula as yours. Looks like you're enjoying it.

They are bewitching in their intricacy and diversity. They are a wonderful subject. Welcome to the hive/nest/colony/swarm!

Great in flight shot! No need to apologize, I often forget to change the lens ID when I'm going back and forth.
