Hide and Seek

See how quickly you can find the hidden animals without enlarging the picture! 
(Far away pictures of anoles brought to you courtesy of my fear of them :)

I was working on my leaf collection for biology (oh yeah, now you're jealous - who wouldn't want to collect leaves?  Just keep in mind that coveting is a sin.) and I stumbled upon this little guy. (Not literally - if I had touched that thing, I would still be freaking out.  Some people - you know who you are - make fun of my fear of anoles - ok, really all animals - so you should be proud of me for getting this close to them.  And no, I did not even use my zoom lense.)   He was completely green when I first saw him, but by the time I had gone and gotten my camera, he was already turning brown.  When he moved later, he turned grey.

my hardest subject

 Today I experimented with my hardest subject yet - bees!  They land on a flower, but then they fly to the next flower a second later!  So here's the best of what I have:  

The yellow dot by the bee's legs is the pollen he had already collected - it's pretty cool to see!
