mine to, that's why I still put it here ;) so yes, couldn't care less whether the picture is nice or not as long as I can see who's on the picture ;D
Haha :D Not too nice of it - but since my main goal is to find nice species and just secondly to take beautiful photos of 'em I could live with such a behaviour :-p
to console you, they are super not-willing to collaborate to make some nice photos :D this one was about 5 m away from me...omg
I have found some pictures with darker individuals too ;) ha ha ha, are you gonna jump out from this bushes too? :D crazy bayucca, now I'm really concerned :P
Please, verify! Yours appears to be a very dark individual. Maybe from the oaks bayucca was talking about?? ;-)
