Hits Keep Coming
Only had three bugs last night but one of the 3 is an Alabama record. And the hits just keep on coming :)

Wonder what would've happened had you tried to move it at that point. Chaos surely would have ensued. :-0

The BEST
Was when Lynette and I complimented each other on our photos at the EXACT same time



It was like going through a worm-hole or something.

I See, Now
I think my recent cataract surgery and glasses might be affecting my photography. I didn't recognize this specimen because the quality of May posting was so much better.



I need to reevaluate how I shoot macro. I'd be glad to hear from you other glasses wearers, how you deal with this. Thanks

Huh?
The shot is just fine. You did not recognize it because it's almost certainly a different species :-)

Moving to Family level until it can be addressed by an expert.

Um, wrong order
This is some kind of beetle, but you were just testing us:-)

As always, you passed with flying colors.
