I have the 60/2.8 Macro, as well. A very fine macro lens - for the kind of
work I used to do with macro lenses on film. 
I do have a plan to photograph some tiny still lifes, using focus
bracketing, and the 60/2.8 should figure prominently.

For what I do in the field so often now, not enough working distance. 400 mm
(800 mm eq.) is lots better for some subjects. Not just because some can
sting and they often leave if I get too close, but because it's often, as
below, not possible to get physically close enough for a conventional macro
FL.

Not often do I get two such different species in the same place - and the
same plane of focus.

These flowers were swarming with wasps, bees and the odd fly. I managed a
good capture of one of the bees.

insects on one flower, with the wasps in the majority . Here, two of the
wasps. <http://zone-10.com/tope2/main.php?g2_itemId=21110>
