Between the poison ivy and staying within line of site of the kids in the water I couldn't travel far but there was some pretty good sized orb weavers on the property etc.

















Tough shot, arms at max length.


Anyone know what this is ??? I do :)






This fly was easily 1 inch long

Yeah I know.. not difficult..

But you'd be surprised by how many people don't know that.

And I have no idea about that beetle.. I was wondering that myself.

Seeing that you live in FLA I'm sure you do miss the mountains :)

Great pix.


I tried taking pix of bugs a few times but it seems they always fly off or move right before pressing the shutter:wall: {D .
