    He is looking right at you. I have not been able to get one land on me for a long time. Maybe I smell bad to them.

    Thanks for helping me to make history.

    Very nice,
    Could you please identify a winged insect (butterfly or moth) that I photographed

    It can be seen here on my blog.
