A Bug's Life
Here is my Disney theme entry. I was hoping to find a bug that was actually in the movie but blue ants are very hard to find! :)

So I settled for this blue damselfly (I just learned what these were called).

  Great pic of a damselfly, hard to get these guys to stand still for photos and on a flower with contrasting colors. So I am still waiting for that blue ant.
