Description
I came to work and saw this bug but he was on the sheetrock part of the window. I say "He dead" I saw his freind on the floor and he was dead that I know.
I started tapeing the sheetrock and when I got close to him ;he moved I stop and got my camera and started takeing photos. He move into the stand you see now. I was playing with the marco stuff and this is the best one that came out.
I say "Poor fellow; he going to die if he stay there at lest outside he have a fighting chance"
I did not wish to pick him up with my hands for he might bite me so I took my sheetrock knife which hade some mud on it and scoop him up. I was careful not to hurt him and I saw him hop up a little as the knife came to him. Then I saw him look like he was sucking the water out of the mud. I went outside and saw this bush and I put him there. It look like he just hop off of the mud knife. Then he looked at me cleaning his littles hands. I looked at him and I thought he had no eyes but in a way I felt like he was saying "THANKS" Guess he had eyes but I no bug person that study them too.
I went in and started to work again then in five minutes I went outside and looked for the bug but he was gone.
So he alive and that how I got the title here
thanks for everything

Excellent capture my friend...!!!!
He is a funny lil critter. I like him I wonder what he is!! Excellent photo!!! Thanks for not stomping him to death I love bugs!!
Superb nature capture Jocko, amazing the bug held still long enough for you to get the shot and even let 'em outdoors. Like you figured, 'e must have been might tired fighting to get through that invisible barrior. I think you earned some good karma too!
Excellent capture
Wonderful shot Jock, thank you for helping him. I am not a person who likes bugs. I do not kill them though. Di
I love these closeup shots! Fabulous story and capture. I would have done exactly the same. You are a sweety :)
All creatures are God's children!
I agree with Gor 11 erland
wow what a shot ! he looks quite strong ;-) and working so hard ! you captured this so wonderful!
A good shot, considering the circumstances. You have a heart of gold, Jocko. I probably would have caught it and put it in a jar, with holes in the lid, and released him/her after a period of close examination.
very cool shot!
COOOOL SNAP :)
That is just surreal! A dusty fellow. Maybe a sheetrocker in the past life. That stance! "Up against the wall M____ F_____(beep)..."
Good picture and story about this "capture" and release of this little creature. Maybe it was a mudwasp.
That's a fantastic capture!
