    This was done on another forum I frequent.

    Someone posts a Macro Shot and the person who guessed correctly would then post one of their own..... and so on.

    Depends on the species. Some over winter, others as little as 2 weeks.

    No .... wouldn't have to be Macro. The other one was but those without a Macro Lens were sort of excluded (like me at the time) so it could be any abstract photo.

    Go for it if you like the idea :D
