But, as I saw them move about, I realized that they were not just drifting in the breeze, but were actually controlling their own course.? I finally found out they were Hackberry Wooly Aphids, but there was no way to catch a picture on the fly. Finally, today, I had one settle down on a leaf in front of me. Focusing on something with no shape gave me problems;? this is the best I could do. http://www.gallery.leica-users.org/v/OldNick/20180831-DSCF9591.JPG.html Comments and critiques welcomed and appreciated. -- Jim Nichols Tullahoma, TN USA
