Roy, you are using the 105mm micro to it's fullest. Great shots!

Excellent, looks like it's discovering it's legs, then the wings.

Looks big for a newborn, but I haven't seen one before. :)

Don't think I've noticed the little oval suction cups at the ends of the legs before.

Does look like he's doing his best to soak up the rays! Super shot.

It's a baby! How beautiful! I don't suppose you watched him hatch?

Up close and personal! Great exposure, too.
