Which comes first?

(does birth is always happening before death?)


Today I was doing some macro shooting comparison between my Oly and my daughters NIKON. That is because yesterday I have purchased macro extension tubes for her Nikon.
Not good subjects was ready at hand, so I tried to shoot leaves of a bouquet of flowers, which my wife put on a terrace table.

I leave this comparison results for a future, because I am not certain I'm ready yet for final decision.
But while shooting, I have noticed a few dead insects on the leaves. All were very tiny, only 3-5 mm in length.
What surprised me was that one of the insects seemed got it's death even before it's birth. Maybe that was a mosquito, but I may be wrong. Whatever it was, it made me a bit weird feeling

Birth and DEATH on the same flower

Here are some of the pictures of what I have seen today on our bouquet
