Those little things are plentiful in my area. More of them down along the coast than up here in farm country.

Now that's a topic worthy of discussion and photographic interest. St. Kitts on vacation is one thing, but living there would be quite another story. Sometime if you feel like posting a captioned picture or two you would have at least one captive onlooker. Thanks.

I’m guessing from his user name he might have attended medical school there.

I almost stepped on this guy in my garage a few years ago.

He did not survive our encounter.

Holy Crap! I take it you used something more powerful than a Bic lighter and a can of hairspray to take him out!
