Elderberry Nesting
The Elderberries have started ripening and while snacking I noticed one of the berries looked a little fuzzy. On closer inspection it turns out to be more than a bit of fuzz.
Taken using the Canon A70 with a 25mm or 19mm telescope lens held in front of camera lens.

Great shots! So what *are* those dots? Spiders?
They ain't Bon Bons.
I was thinking maybe from a little moth but I really don't know. Not to put too fine a point on it but whatever laid them has a fine tuned telescopic ovipositor.
This isn't it, but here's some cool photos:
