I think this is the last of them. Enjoy!
I just happened to see this not-so-cute caterpillar hiding underneath a leaf as Phil and I walked around the zoo. If I was a bird, I would not want to eat this critter.
One day, I am going to attempt to take a picture of a bee, get to close to it, piss it off, and get stung. Last time I checked, I am allegric to wasps. Don't want to find out if the same holds true for other winged critters with a stinger.
I found this guy in the Botanical Garden section of the zoo. I love spiders, I do, but man, getting close enough to take a picture of one freaks me out. Why couldn't God make spiders cute?
I guess this Anole is using the metal of the name plate to warm himself up. Note how he's looking at me.
Apparently, the name plates are popular among the Anoles. He's a cutie.
I made Phil take this one because I wasn't about to get that close to the spider. I felt safe with the other Writing Spider cause he had been on the other side of the web. Spiders give me the willies.
That’s a seriously scary looking spiders. I really really hate spiders. They creep the crap out of me. Just bad experience with them. BAD!

He looks scarier than his bite I’m sure. If he wasn’t so big, I wouldn’t have been so scared of taking the picture. I don’t mind the little ones. The little ones are sorta cute. 🙂

This is one you NEVER get near.

I’m gonna compile a list of all the blog entries you’ve posted where Phil almost dies on your behalf.

Hey there! You just registered the postcard I sent you on Postcrossing! I found your blog by following the link in your comment. Your pictures area AMAZING! What kind of camera are you using?

(PS – I did NOT see Arnold today in Sacramento…sigh…ok, I don’t really care if I ever see him but I agree with you…it’s funny to have him as our governor!)

Hey Malea! Thanks for visiting,and thanks for your complement about my pictures. My camera is a Canon PowerShot S5IS. It is much cheaper now than when I bought it. It has been pretty good to me. I particularly like that my video is nearly DVD quality – although you can’t tell that on my blog because You Tube compresses it a whole lot. Hope you keep coming back.
