I found 5 or 6 of these interesting looking critters foraging around some of the unopened blooms of thistles in my yard. They were quick to take flight (last shot) when disturbed or pressed at all.

Angelica (cleaning lady) was doing a deep clean of the carpet today, so I just HAD to jump out of the office a bit before lunch to explore this park. :) I've seen this once before -- will go back and remember.

At lunch today, I went over to Britton park just for a little bit. Didn't get to stay too long, but I still spotted a few organisms. :)
