The Dew Of Little Things

In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed.

I am unsure of the bug ID. I was really happy to capture him among the dew.

Green Shield Bug - The Climb

Always continue the climb. It is possible for you to do whatever you choose, if you first get to know who you are and are willing to work with a power that is greater than ourselves to do it.

Lizard Looking at Me

There are more experiences in life than you’d think for which there are no words.

~Anita Shreve

It was THRILLING to see this lizard with a blue belly/throat on the outside wall of an old shed. If you know the ID - please leave a comment and let me know.

The Unknown

All nature is but art unknown to thee. ~Alexander Pope

Unknown creature - wasp maybe? I love those hairy legs!!

Lots of Legs

It used to be that creatures like this would creep me out. Now I just find them quite fascinating. Not sure of the ID on this guy - some type of centipede maybe?

Discovered 06-05-10 on a morning walk at Gateway Trail - Blacksburg, Virginia

Me thinks that the moment my legs begin to move, my thoughts begin to flow.
