Lifequest22 said at 10:08 a.m. on Sep 15, 2007: Fantastic shots.It's amazing how much he looks like a leaf.
Love2laugh said at 10:45 a.m. on Sep 15, 2007: Tammy - I knew the expression was make like a "tree" and leave - but I wanted to use the word "LEAF" because he looks like a LEAF to me, from a tree. I didn't know how else to get that word in there. :)
Love2laugh said at 10:50 a.m. on Sep 15, 2007: Oscar - This is the first time I have seen one of these. I was enjoying taking pictures of him because he did not seem scared of me at all.
Sativa - I loved how BRIGHT the green was on him and how detailed the LEAF LOOK was on his body.
Wendy - I thought he was posing too. He would let me get up close and take pictures while he walked around. I finally had mercy on him and grabbed him and put him out doors where he belonged.
Bill and Val - Thanks !!!
Elizabeth - He was trapped inside my work building between some security doors. He would get on the glass and Look outside..hahahaha... !! I finally had to hold him and put him outside where he belonged.
Linda - My son just loved the pictures when I showed him later, :)

AliDar said at 3:20 a.m. on Sep 16, 2007: These are very impressive Shelia! Wonderfully detailed macros! ... What an amazing insect; from a distance it looks like a soft leaf, but up close it looks like it's wearing a suit of green armour! Great work; an instant fav for me! :)
AliDar said at 3:22 a.m. on Sep 16, 2007: Oh hey, and you gave him safe passage outside too! :-)
Pkeener said at 2:09 p.m. on Sep 16, 2007: Great Title!! nice job sheila..this is a bug tabblo i can live with!
Love2laugh said at 2:48 p.m. on Sep 16, 2007: Alidar - He was soft to the touch too. But the first time I tried to move him outside he flew into my hair and I screamed... hahahaha... Then I took a few more pictures and grabbed him again by his wings and took him outside and let him fly to the trees. It was a great moment. :) Almost felt like my SISTER..hahahahahaha......
Pam - I didn't think this Bug Tabblo was too freaky. I know some had complained about all the bug tabblos lately..... creeping them out. :) I thought this little guy was cute. I felt good about rescuing him too. :)
GryphonHeart said at 9:06 p.m. on Sep 16, 2007: Lol, I can imagine what the insect will say....: Leave me alone, and DON'T BUG me... LOL LOL LOL..... ahahahah
Anyway, Awesome shots you have here. I always love insect's pictures, as they are always so interesting and intriging. Well done girl. Keep them coming. ;P
