Gold Finch

Posted By Robert Watters
It's been a while since I've posted anything but there always seems to be plenty of great shots from everyone else. wink

Well anyways, this is all I can muster up for now.
Canon 300D and a C90.

Lavender bush?

Posted By Robert Watters
I think this is called Lavender. Very small flowers about 1/8" across and very aromatic.

Japanese beetles have invaded my Lavender bush! Not good. cwy
These things are a non-native species that have huge appetites.

This came out a little better that expected but could also use some longer exposures. You can see some of the central region in the lower left.

Re: Cave mirror inscriptions?

Posted By Robert Watters
My guess is that the M750202 is a serial number or such.
The 74-11/16" is the exact focal length of the mirror (12-1/2" x 6 = 75")

For some un-lucky prey!

Not sure of the type but they wait down in a tunnel they've formed into their web, and they are fast!
