Great Pics, superb!

I haven't seen one of those in quite awhile. I believe they change color relative to their surroundings. Not sure how I new that, or even if it's true ? I guess I recall them being different colors when weeding that huge garden when I was a slave lol.

Isn't this supposed to be in the politics and religion sub forum?

Like always great pics.

And jbrew, we gots the green ones and brown. If I start seeing the striped or spotted one's I will check myself in.

Thank you for your posts! I don't think they change color, but I think different species are different colors.

Well, I hope that never happens. Just to be safe, don't ever weed the tomato's

Yea those bright green ones glow in the dark.

Right, probably a species thing. I recall the green species most. I thought they had pinchers or something like that. Iduno, could of been a night mare, from way back when..
