<p>A macro photograph of flying insects from the Natural History Museum in London. One image captures a large green scarab beetle emitting a deep, low-frequency hum (&quot;Bass Drone&quot;), while the other depicts a slender longhorn beetle soaring with a high, sharp note (&quot;High Whinny&quot;). Together, they convey nature's invisible orchestra, where each wingbeat creates its own unique flight frequency.<br />
