Isn't that a "Luna Moth" or are they the green ones?

Hey Jazz....you sure he wasn't hanging around waitin for St Peter?---he looks awfully relaxed---and foggy around the eyes.

No, the fogginess is probably from my lack of photography skills. :dork: He was quite lively when I dumped him out of the water pan he was in. :lol:

This is disgusting but its practice....this is a face of a fly(a dead one found floating in my pool--since I just opened it--the chlorine is pluckin them out of the sky--they get anywhere close and boom ...dead! Thought it was a cool pic though

No, it's not a Luna Moth - they are definitely green and HUGE. I get a couple of them around my house and have yet to be able to capture them with my camera. :ohwell:

Oh, I'm sorry--I thought you found him in a pond....and the rest of him is defined. Last year....I found one in my pond that had a tumour in its eye...poor thing--he finally succumbed to it. If I find the pic...I will post it...one eye ...atleast twice the size of the other!

No, it's a big plastic pan I have outside filled with water for my kitties. He wasn't in there this morning so he was definitely still alive and kicking. :lol:

Poor froggy - I'll bet it's a neat pic though. :yay:

Your photography skills have drastically improved, so just stop that. :lol: Beautiful pictures of the bee and flowers. I never practice anymore and used to do rather well, then more technology came and I became a :gasp: slacker.

Not exactly a bug

eIMG_0074.jpg

This gives me a good idea.....we could start a thread that people post the caption to for the pic--this turtle has sooo much character...."OK Who put the dang fence around them tomatoe plants!!!":lmao:
Did you get down on your belly to take this?--they are usually so shy except when they get tired of you messing with them and just want to leave....
