This little guy cracked me up (watch the video). I had a macro lens attachment on my iPhone and had to hold the phone extremely close to this little guy to get him in focus. He could tell something was on top of him, but couldn't turn his head all the way to see everything looming above. He had this body language about him as though he was saying, "Lady, do you mind? Get that thing out of my face!" He finally got irritated and started coming toward me (the camera) to investigate. Those little white things (I don't know if they're a type of antennae) look like civil war sideburns to me and they were wiggling back and forth like he was telling me off. :)
