I think he crosses the line: So ugly that he's BEAUTIFUL! How do you FIND these creatures? #9600756Michael Umbreit August 13, 2011
Thanks! Well, I do have to admit that I have gone out "bug hunting" lately. But I have only spotted two of these this summer. They are easy to miss. This one was perched on a flower waiting for any type of prey to show up, so it was easier to see. :-) Mike #9601145Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
