This little larva which I believe is a (thistle-feeding tortoise beetle, Cassida rubiginosahas) made a shield of excrement for protection. Interesting to watch them raise and lower it. I happened to catch it in the act of making an addition. If I am correct these were introduced to control thistle.

Explored....thanks friends!
FUN? The sign says fun...but I'm thinking "not so much". A fun shot, yes, a fun place, yes, a fun day.....no.
Many of you know I have been learning all about light....strobes. I have posted several photo's that a friend and I took of my granddaughter and her daughter. They became fast friends and I was very proud of the images and the things I had learned. 2 of the 3 made top 100 in Explore one making front page.....
I'm very sad today that I had a very "suggestive" comment about one of the photo's from someone who had faved it. Of course I deleted the comment and blocked the person,as is my right to do, but decided to see who all had faved those shots. And many of you, my dear friends had, thank you so much! But many, many more had faved them who didn't have buddy icons,and either had "nothing available to me" or had only pictures of young girls, and were members of groups that were not for "kittens". Most of those people faved without commenting. Thank goodness for the one who did and brought my attention to the fact that there were people....many of them apparently, I spent all day blocking them,...who would think different about these photo's that I thought were sweet.
So, I deleted all of those photo's plus about half the others I had of my granddaughter and a few of my grandson. It makes me sad and sick.
This isn't something to start some debate on censorship.....don't bother commenting about it....I'm not in the mood!
To those dear sweet friends out there who are a constant source of encouragement to me, I thank you......I would never have had the courage to start my business without your encouragement! I will post my family photo's on my facebook account. If you have facebook, email me here at flickr and I'll add you as a friend there or send you the link to our website.
I will still be on flickr.....but I will not post many shots of children, my grandkids or others....sad....thats mostly what I shoot!
XOXOXOXOXOXOXO to my friends!
