These critters were all spotted at the Missouri Botanical Gardens in Downtown St. Louis, MO. Beautiful place to visit if you're in town!
*All shot with a Pentax K100d and Sony a65
First came the Dragonflies:
And then I traveled through the lush green leaves of the Oriental garden
and came upon a curious frog sitting on a rock below an ornate wooden bridge
I followed his gaze, and it appeared he was checking on the local chicks
I then took a trip into the tropical environment Dome and ran into some busy ants, crawling over a uniquely elegant flower
After a long day, I was ready to head out, when all of a sudden someone finally showed up....
and finally I got one last shot as I was passing by some grass in the parking lot on my way out, an elderbug!
Thanks for reading! my paws are getting tired from all this typing
