Man when you enlarge that picture, it's wicked good. You can see the detail on his legs.

I think the bugs are laughing at us. Sure, they can get squashed and eaten, but I amost think they have such short life spans so they can come back as something else. So they have no worries.

By the way, I really like the new colors of your blog.

about the pic--I still couldn't get the yellow and black dot to come in focus, otherwise, I'm fine with it. I didn't know what kind of bug it was when I was snapping it, so I wasn't going to get that close! There are so many bugs too--they must know if they get squashed or eaten, there are plenty of them to go around. It must be peaceful to be a bug. Hey, Thanks!
