ENTOMOgraphy - insects
Entomography is the study through close-up and macro-images of insects, an arthropod class that comprises of nearly one million known species, representing about three fourths of all the classified animal species.

Insects are studied because of their importance as pollinators for fruit crops; as carriers of bacterial, viral, and fungal diseases; as parasites of humans or livestock; as destroyers of economically important plants; or as predators of other destructive insects.

Unlike butterflies, insects can be found almost anywhere. I didn't have to ride or drive away from home to find them. Insects can be found flying, crawling or just resting or hiding any time from dawn to dusk.
