That's a great shot and has one of my favorite colors for a background at that.
That type of lizard changes colors.
Interesting! I didn't realize they used rafts to cross water.
I have a Canon T100 and just got a 100mm macro lens.
Those are some awesome shots. Congratulations!
@Ponka, here's a frog for you.
This gal (I think it's a female) is pretty huge compared to the other creatures in this thread, but she inhabits a minuscule pond in my backyard and has created her own tiny world there.

have you seen any eggs or tadpoles? they usually mate and reproduce around this time
I like how having a camera in hand makes the whole world interesting again. Things I once took for granted like common houseflies become objects of fascination and opportunities to learn something new. The symmetry of animal wings captivates me.
Behold, the larva of a 14 spotted ladybird beetle. !!!!
Metamorphosis is an incredible thing.
On my very short list of Absolute Truths About Life is: things change.
Here's the 7 spot ladybird beetle larva, which will turn into a classic red ladybird with black spots. This one is munching on aphids, much to the chagrin of the ants who were protecting them to feast on their "honeydew" nectar. The ladybird larva has cleaned out the aphid colony over the past few days.

Here's a strange little thing. Took me awhile to figure it out. I'd noticed a few attached to the exterior walls of my house. They seemingly stay still for days and I wasn't sure it was a living thing, but I caught one moving and finally solved the puzzle.
This is a bagworm (Psychidae). It's the larval stage of a moth that builds a "bag" out of collected debris to live in. It attaches itself to branches or walls and can seal itself inside for protection.
