I finally got around to cutting and trimming the grass. No, I didn’t mow down those pretty flowers that were featured a few days ago. They are safe and sound!
When I went to remove one of the guides from under the downspout, this fellow and a bluish colored skink were hanging out under it. The skink sped off, however this guy hopped onto the patio and tried to hide in the corner. After I finished my chores, he was still there, so naturally, I had to get my camera. I had the macro lens on and got all in his face, as you can see. Not only did I disturb him from his home, I had to shove my lens in his face!
After the ‘voluntary’ photo shoot, I shooed him away into the tall grass and let him go on home. As you can see, there are pieces of cut grass on his head. My bad!

Very cool!
Paul, I remember you saying, “I want a shot like this in my collection” and here we are!

I think you got a better shot than I did! You know what this means? WAR! Photography War. Hahaha. Great shot my friend. This is a really really nice shot.
That’s funny, Reza. I remember the post; however, I still like your shot better!
Oh yes, that is beautiful!! It’s that wonderful time of year to shoot all the wild critters. Here’s to many more great captures like this one.
Really nice Paul!!
You’ve got to love spring. Too bad the skink ran off.

That’s a great macro headshot Paul. That little fella looks very photogenic with his multiple brown variation and adapted textures. Love the details and the framing/composition.
Great photo of a very handsome toad! It is a good thing he wasn’t in my yard as I probably would have picked him up so that I could be sure to identify what kind of toad he is!
No way Paul, you win this one hands down. My shot has so much chromatic abrasion (sp). I need to reprocess that….
Awww…he’s cute! Great shot. Glad he stayed around for you to get his photo.
