Very good! How big is this bug? #1403292

Bob - Thanks! This guy was probably about half an inch long. It doesn't look like much with the naked eye but that is the idea. I would love to get shots of one in action. They will take on prey much larger than themselves. :-) Mike #9623807

A great shot Mike. Detail and colors are spot on. This is one ugly creature though. #9630930
