Tiny friends

These were my new friends of the day. The caterpillar was on a piece of ball moss I picked up while playing disc golf. Frogger friend was in the backyard creek (where I was looking for cool stuff). Pretty sure it's a Blanchard's Cricket Frog- he was about the size of my thumbnail, the 'pillar guy is pinky nail size. Tiny guys!

Also, finally updated my website: http://jillwussowphotography.com/ if you're bored with the Superbowl (yawn...!) and feel like checking it out! Macro Monday Our World Tuesday Weekly Top Shot

Do you know what the caterpillar is? I find field guides less useful for caterpillars than anything else. Many just assume you only want to know what the imago looks like!; February 4, 2013 at 8:00 AM
