I love the ugly little booger already. Good eye and a great close up of the fly and the Mexican Hat. #1184602Tess L. Yee September 25, 2009

Oh, we have plenty of these around my neck of the woods here in Central TX. They are absolutely voracious - constantly on the move it seems, for food...you captured this fella perfectly, Eric! Beautiful color and fine detail - excellent job! #7982759Tammy M. Anderson September 25, 2009
