In my garden the blooms are rare
But little creatures wander there
Foraging for a bite to eat
Or simply enjoying a sunny seat.

LOL Did you chloroform all your critters, Sherry? I've never seen a drowsier collection. 
Seriously, your shots are fantastic, your subjects beautiful, and your poem and captions are brilliant!!
Seriously, your shots are fantastic, your subjects beautiful, and your poem and captions are brilliant!!Thank you, kind Donna! If chloroform forms from chlorophyll, maybe that is what happened. The critters were particularly lackadaisical about my presence. I was shooting with a 100mm lens and was getting pretty darn close. I just came in from a recon of the area and had found The Thinker on the same pole, same pose, perhaps one step counterclockwise. Maybe someone super-glued his suction cups.
The smaller frog (if it's the same one) has relocated to a different plant.The thunder now is growing near
And if the skies will only clear
I'll return to my jungle to find more ops
And try to refine my photography chops

Thanks, Ron! He is a lazy little thing - a wonderfully cooperative subject.

Thanks, Earl! I was happy to find willing subjects in my garden - and these didn't sway in every little wisp of breeze.

Thanks for dropping by, merry, and for your nice comments. The creepy crawly does wear an interesting coat -- but they are not all our friends, are they? Will this one turn into a pretty critter or be a vegetation annihilating monster?

I guess this fits in with the "you can't have everything" theory.
