Life on a daisy III
Final entry in my accidental series.
I had to search high and low for this guy.
I don’t usually go out with such a specific goal in mind.
Found tons of little flies, ants and those fat bellied spiders …
stopped wherever I saw daises …
Thought I would never find anything I really liked.
Then …

Very nice shot

Great shot. I took one almost identical to this, may be these butterflies like posing for the camera?

Lovely, Larry. You mean you didn't see him sitting there and shouting (quietly, I imagine) "Here! Over here! Aren't you that guy who wanders around here taking pictures? Will you hurry up? I can't sit here all day!" while you were wasting his time looking at bugs and spiders? Beautiful composition all the way around -- and he is a lovely little fellow.
