Thanks and yes, it took almost two hours of shuffling back and forth along the same muddy furrow in a dirt road, before one of them would sit still and face me head-on for just long enough to get close. I went back two more times to the same stretch of the track and the sand tigers had vanished, but instead this blue-green species showed up: A Jewel on the Ground ![]() Of course they wouldn't sit and wait either, but then clouds came in and that seemed to slow down their hyperactive run-fly-photo-evading. Two's the magic number ![]() And yet another species showed up as well, smaller and more wine reddish with two ivory bands, but even jumpier than its bigger brethren. I didn't get close at all - cloud or no cloud - but then next morning this specimen of the very same kind briefly stopped running along the edge of a very different puddle near a different highway further east: Cropped a bit too much ![]() Still with a65 + Sigma 70 2.8 macro |

Thanks, yes, they can be fast, but usually pretty docile. I think he might have just shed because he was very defensive and watched me every second. He kept running around the top of this planter every time I moved toward him. But he stayed still long enough for me to snap a few. |
