Stream cruiser (Didymops transversa)

NCC greenbelt area in west end of city. Nowhere near a stream, by the way. Despite their name, they are often found far from water. The only other individual of this species I saw was also some distance from water.

Canon PowerShot SX10 IS
1/250s f/5.7 at 100.0mm iso100 full exif

other sizes: small medium large original auto

I would love to see one of those. Did you see the female? V

Love the name, Stream Cruiser... and yet not near water. Nice work with your tones and composition here! V

Another serendipitous capture. You have such sharp eyes and so much knowledge. It is truly camouflaged, great shot.V

The details are superb Christine. This can be used as an illustration in a biology text book. The out of focus background is very nice. V
