I posted this in Artistes blog but I wanted to post them here too.
do you see??
it is a little frog. We have a wet spot up near one of our little outbuildings and there are a thousand of these little frogs, they are hard to sneak up on but this one stayed to have his pic taken. When they see you coming they all hop up into the leaves next to their little puddle....so many of them it sounds like rain hitting the leaves...
but! the reason why I am posting them is to remind everyone what David said about the macro option. When you use it, you will get better pics if you dont' zoom too much, I try not to zoom at all. I get as close as I can then let the macro lens do its job. The first picture I was not happy with but instead of zooming, I eased a bit closer for the second
of course this works better on flowers and other less 'jumpy' subjects....before I got as close as I wanted to he hopped away.

Eww, ewww, eww :P
I always thought of Texas as a hot and dry place. We see those earthworms only when it's raining (that's why they're called "Regenwürmer" = rainworms in German).
