Calling all masters of inventions, would it be possible to craft a machine that translate insects' thoughts? Do they even have any? Do they even talk or have I watched too much cartoons back then?
Anyhow, wouldn't it be nice to hear what those insect think? What ya' say Steemian? Wouldn't it be nice if animals could also be understood? Lending help for one in danger would be a lot easier I think but ... I could also not imagine the fear it may bring along if such an invention ever get to materialized.
BTW... something's wrong with my camera, I thought it was the lens but that dot of a smudge seems to appear on almost each pic. Any idea what's causing that ? Truth is~~, the pics on my last post had that, too I was just able to fix it but this time I let it be so I could ask you. I'm thinking it must be some fiber but where could it be? How do I get it off? Tip? Thanks already. ^ ^
Thank you for posting these thoughts dear @englishtchrivy.
What lovely photographs......this is a beautiful creature....appreciate you capturing its beauty and bringing it to Steemit.
As for the smudge....I am afraid I had one as well not long ago.....and now it is not there.....yet there was nothing to do. ^__^
Insects are conscious but not self conscious.
Here's hoping you are having a lovely weekend.
Cheers mon ami.....xox

This is such a cute creature. I wish i could understand animals. I have 2 cats and somethimes it seems like they understand my language and every word i'm saying. When i say " we are going to visit my mom" so Yan (my male cat) at the same time running to hide under the bed because he knows that we will ride in the car for 2 hours (and he doesn't really like it). When he's dripping and I'm wrocking at him, sometimes he gets sniffed at me 😁😂😂 and it seems like we have a real conversation.
I think if we could understand animals, we would be closer to them and we would be able to overcome the problem of the disappearance of entire species.

finally, someone who really read
thank you!
you bet that!
I'm also worried we might as well hate them
imagine there's a machine that could hear human thoughts ..
can you also imagine the trouble and misunderstanding it would cause us if we hear their hate thoughts? I sort of thought about that, too
but it must be me .. I tend to think too much
that translation machine would be great though
specially if we could attach it to our pets ^ ^
your cats sound really smart :D
and they must give you much pleasure ^ ^

I like to read your posts 😁😁, especially when you are talking on behalf of the animal, that's really fun:) I still remember your story about a duck that didn't want to pose for you without getting some food 😁😂😂😂. That was very funny.
I love my cats and i'm having a pleasure to watch them. They are very funny and each has its own character. Same as people!

yes, I used to live next to a woman with 23 cats, they are very smart and though they were a lot her daughter has managed to discipline them, they all eat at the same time, on their own plates, they all just watch while she pour them their kitty meal ... it was always fun to watch ^ ^ so I can imagine how much you love yours
they're pretty warm, too and soft when they rub themselves on your legs aren't they ? ^ ^

Ohhh yeahhh they love to sleep on my knees 😀😁😂. The male cat ( 6 years old ) still think that i'm his mother 😂😂 and the female cat ( 1 year old) was very wild when we took her to our home. I was waiting few months till she will get used to us😬😬😬.

That's a cute story! It might be interesting to listen to the thoughts of insects, though cicadas would still be annoying!
It looks like you've got some dust on your camera's sensor:
In as dust free space you can find:
set the mirror "up" its usual position is hanging in front of the sensor,
take off the lens, you should be able to see the sensor and a little speck of dust on it,
use one of those bulb like hand blowers if you have one, and blow the dust off, do not touch the sensor!
If that doesn't work, take it to a camera shop and have a professional clean it.
Then go out and take more pictures! :)

thank you for posting a reply on my query
so its just dust then
I don't think I would dare touch that mirror
or anything in it ... so I'd just ask an expert if it still is there two weeks later
as for cicadas, I love their meh meh meh cries
they sound like a huge kite in the sky
they must be in a chorus complaining about having to stay only for a week above the ground after many years of being under the ground :)

Fair enough, you don't have to touch the mirror to move it to the 'up' position, there should just be a setting in the menu for it; but if your not comfortable doing that, taking it to a shop is the safest option.
The cicadas do have a very short life on the surface, they're not complaining about it though. Everyone that you hear is a male trying to appeal to female cicada, the louder the better! I'd be more supportive if they didn't reach airplane engine volumes! :P

YOU SAVED MY CAMERA!

as for cicadas of course you are right .. it's a booty call and boy the male are too loud but they're cute I actually like the sound I just can't imagine hearing it all day long or do they also get quiet at night?

You're very welcome, I'm glad I could help!
Sometimes cicadas do stop singing at night, but if the temperature is just right they can continue well into the evening, singing for booty. I'm fortunate to not live too close to places where they congregate, it can be louder than a jet-engine!

@englishtchrivy, You have a good imagination, heh. I enjoyed reading the reflections of this butterfly:). I wonder what's really in her mind? well, of course if she has any thoughts.
With regard to this small point on the photos, unfortunately I don't know about it. I've had it for a while, too. I had it for 2 days. But while I was thinking about her strange appearance, she disappeared. I came to the conclusion that this is just a small speck of dust and I happily forgot about it until this moment, until I saw Your post.

exactly ... if they do have such thoughts ^ ^
I do think its dust but I don't know how to clean it

thanks for the reply
hopefully, mine disappears, too
I used my D Eye yesterday but I haven't checked on the pics yet
too busy to check :D

Interesting thoughts. Animals that come in contact with us definitely understand us. I've been watching this over and over again. I read that cats understand up to 100 words. Dogs, like me, understand us even more.

Aww you are quite a moth hero. I don't think I want to know insect's thoughts, because I would feel so incredibly sorry for them. Think of that disgusting housefly and how all she wants to do is find some human food to lay her eggs on. And those silly beetles that can't fly or walk worth a darn but are quite cute - you'd hear all their silly thoughts until their abrupt end.
I think I will stick with my vertebrate snobbery, and assume only we spiny-creatures have thoughts.

am not a moth hero lol
plus its a butterfly
anyone would do that unless they're scared of bugs
as for the horsefly I would probably be able to splat one before they could do their nasty business on us if we could hear them but it would be such a yuck
so I think I'd go with you on not understanding them at all

Oranjetipje!
Stofje op de sensor, of op het achterste element van de lens, denk ik. Kun je zelf weghalen, maar een sensor schoonmaken kan wat lastig zijn, kun je misschien beter laten doen.
Soms is een keer blazen genoeg.

The butterfly was caught in the spider web, I can imagine how frightened it was not able to free of itself and how happy to see you there. It is really interesting to know that the insects think, but from other side we do not know if they can think like us human.
I love your interpretation of the feeling being caught, you have a good skill for writing, just wondering have you thought of writing any stories in the past?
Wish you a nice week and hope your butterfly recover from it's shock :)
