Description

Nikon 7900 pocket camera - hand held image. Last September I found some insect eggs on the foliage of a Goat Weed plant. I watched them for a day or so and they hatched out into these cute little guys that look like the critters in an old time kids game called "Cootie", lol. I posted an image on September 1 of them and am now posting this image which was taken at the same time. A day or so after this image, they had changed colors completely. I posted an image of this change on September 4. Thanks to those who find the time to comment. Lee
