My crazy S. She loves animals; birds, dogs and cats. And bugs that crawl. She's terrified of flying bugs, and come to think of it, isn't to fond of bugs with feet either. Unless they're long and worm-ish. What can I say, she's odd. When I was gardening, S created a "worm garden"- a whole little habitat in a glass bowl with the things worms need- dirt, leaves, sticks, a pebble or two, and an occasional flooding of water (so they can be happy!). She finds interesting bugs, worms etc. all the time. This particular critter was at Hobie's house. As you can probably tell, after swimming. She lovingly held him, talked to him and had great plans for how he could happily co-exisit with our two cats. That is, until he tradgically fell off the picnic table (he was sharing dinner with us) right between the slats in the deck (lucky guy- the fallt hat probably saved his life). Because he certainly was NOT traveling in our NEW CAR up to our home to live in a jar in S's bedroom as was her plan. Anyway, without further ado, we are pleased to introduce, "Inchy"

Great shot!
Poor S! Only getting to have Inchy for a few brief minutes! Somehow I suspect there's going to be many more "delightful" pets in your house! Lucky you! Nice detail in the shot.
how great!!! no fear! love the shot!!!
Nice to meet the newest member of your family. Bet he/she's a real cuddler:) It would probably give me the heebie jeebies to hold it like that though.
Great shot, but gives me the itches just seeing it! Check out her pruny fingers, she must have been in the water for a while! :)
LOL, that fall "inchy" took probably DID save his life! What a great story, so sweet! I love how in the photo the worm separates the front of the fingers and the back of the thumb! It just looks neat!
Cheers,

We have a animal/bug lover in our house too, all manner of creatures get brought into the house. I always have to dash their hopes though and tell them simply can't stay. :D
Very cool shot, although I have to say he is a little gross to me, sorry Inchy.
What a great shot. I love how clear and crisp it is.
Welcome to blogland, inchy! There is so much detail in that one little bug. So awesome and fun.
Hate the bug but love the story!! ;)
Very cool shot.
Ummm... inchy is... cute...
*shudder*
(can you tell I hate bugs of all kinds? LOL!)
Very crisp and clear. Almost to much lol..
I love how the detail stands out so much in this shot!
