haha I usually have one of AZ's lizards that I can NEVER see so I dont know what it is, that likes to hide in places where I nearly step on it and it runs and hides in a bush.

one of these days I will get it on camera.

Here is a series of pictures taken and shared by Paul Schneider of TN and posted on the Plant Delights Nursery Facebook page. (https://www.facebook.com/PlantDelightsNursery" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;) Admittedly interesting, but to me, gruesome!

Harriet I thought the same thing. It's sorta like driving past a car wreck. Once as I drove past I realized that the car was exactly like mine. Luckily it wasn't because the driver did something dumb, she had a seizure and crossed a median too fast and rolled over into the other lanes, luckily nothing hit her and she was fine.

And yes it is interesting and gruesome. It's also a fact of life. Thanks for posting it.

Neat series. It is sad though. But that's life, everything has to eat to survive.

A couple of male blue dasher dragonflies I've photographed lately.

Nice - I like the matching blue eyes too. Dragonflies are one of the best insects of all - in my opinion. Ever have them snatch a deer fly right overhead? I just love it when they do that!

I love photographing those things. They make great subjects. I have a photo of one that I took about a week ago that has a damselfly in it's mouth.

"Say 'hello' to my little friend!" One of many in the greenhouse.

I was thinking of posting this picture as a "Can you find it?" puzzle. But, then, I thought maybe my sick humor might not be appreciated!

A wasp about to get eaten by one of my pitcher plants on the front porch.
