all the livestock!!!!!

I was picking a bunch of roses this morning to take to a friend- it really is the last of them. There is a lot of new growth-I always think what a waste this time of year as it will all be pruned off. As I looked I was quite surprised to see the numbers of aphids and other livestock, even more amused when I got the macro out. The different sizes surprised me- obviously adult and tiny babies.....all in the aphid world.
