Grasshopper Image Two — Long legs and big feet.

Butterfly Image Three — Walking around town.
Poor focus but, still beautiful.
07-31-2016

Spider Image Four — This was a huge web with an equally huge spider.
Also a poor focus. I was keeping some distance.
My phone didn’t want to coöperate.
The tan blur in the center is said spider.

Spider Image Five — Another huge spider, hanging from the eave over the front porch.
A light rain highlighted the web.

Mole Image Eight — I believe this cute, deceased, furry thing is a mole but, I’m not totally sure.
The neighbor’s cat brought me a present.
10-21-2016

Preying Mantis Image Six — I nearly missed seeing this after finding the mole.
She is almost the same color as the table.

Preying Mantis Image Seven — This is the first Preying Mantis I’ve seen that was brown.
Most of the ones I have encountered, before, were green.

More to come…
