I think we may have captured the same thing. ^^ I am in Texas so the Horned Spanworm Moth may be correct. It almost looks too different to me, though. <br /><br />http://www.facebook.com/#!/photo.php?pid=3865065&id=551027556&ref=mfAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-57388633715654422232008-06-02T17:57:00.000-04:002008-06-02T17:57:00.000-04:00What an odd little fellow.

I once made a video of an ant moving sawdust to the edge of a tree and dropping it off to the ground. The ant spent the afternoon working and tidying up- picking up a piece, walking to the edge, dropping it, over and over. When you walk in nature, you do it the same way I do - noticing every detail. It would be fun to walk together someday.Sandpiper (Lin)https://www.blogger.com/profile/03704451520824495064noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-46388674087348804872008-05-31T13:28:00.000-04:002008-05-31T13:28:00.000-04:00Great shots, Nina.

(Thanks, Texas Travelers and Mike @ 10,000 Birds)<BR/>And I agree with all the suggestions of skydragon, seahorse, cirque du soleil,...isn't it beautiful!?<BR/><BR/>And those strange "appendages"? I almost thought it was a piece of debris, as it hung there, spinning in the breeze. Perhaps that's its attempt to be unseen by wormeaters!<BR/><BR/>At any rate, I'm glad what almost ended up caught in my hair, has been so interesting for skywatch!nina at Nature Remains.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07888238636692649668noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7757093280387768593.post-3557789484880449662008-05-31T00:52:00.000-04:002008-05-31T00:52:00.000-04:00What an excellent series of pics.
