A Close~Up

Well, believe me!! This guy was toooooooooooo close for comfort :o) The other day just a few yards away from the main door that goes into the Administration Office was this lovely creature. I can't say little as it was pretty big!! Dennis started walking toward it and it was flopping it's tail back and forth. You can see that somewhere along the way he lost part of it's tail! Why it ever decided to go here is beyond me!

WOW! He looks pretty BIG & SCARY!How did you get such a close shot? Didn't he run off when you got close?

Dorcas said...

Vi.....
Yes, he was pretty big & scary!! We were only a few feet from where he was at. I couldn't believe where he was to begin with. When you come down remind me to show you where he was at. It was pretty weird!!!!! That's the closest that I've been to one and don't care to get any closer :o) The bad thing is that he was cornered and couldn't get out. He wasn't a happy camper!

Vi, they have zoom lenses for cameras now. Dorcas was probably at the neighbors house taking this shot.
And Dorcas, I'm not afraid either, but I ain't getting off the ship!!!
LOL Jimm & Cheryl

Hehehe about me being at the neighbors with my zoooooooom camera :o)) Truth is I was at my neighbors which is right at the school. I was on their front porch until I saw how close I was to this creature. Then I decided to go down a different sidewalk to go back to work that afternoon. I ain't nobody's dummy :o)) They don't usually bother people, but when they're cornered I'm not sure what they'd do and I didn't want to find out either!!!

I'm not really scared of them as long as I see them a little ways off and they aren't cornered :o)
