Oh what big eyes you have. This would be the only creepy crawlie I do not like. great shot
great close-up of the head.....
Thanks everyone. I go out every day and lean in close and talk to these critters trying to get them used to my presence so I do not overly stress them when I want to take pictures.
My first thought was that he was laying flat on a mirror, then realized that wasn't the case. Good shot!
Thanks.
