[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 211501, member: 12257"] About once a week, I flip over a large dog house in the back yard and look for interesting things underneath. In the spring, it's usually grass snakes and roly polies, in the summer it's usually spiders and centipedes, and at the beginning of fall it's usually slugs... but THIS week, I found a new friend! At first, he was a little shy, but it gave me the opportunity to do the photographer's thing and change lenses a couple of times... ;) I could only see the full color when he was rolled up and playing dead.

It probably amused the neighbors as I started crawling all over the patio on my belly to get a couple of action shots! :cool: Afterwards, I returned him back to where I found him, which was an adventure since he was no longer afraid of me and working on his escape.
