Cought these guy in the weed patch this evening. Only a few feet apart but it seems they knew what plant was safest to be on..

Wow, good finds. I really like the texture on the first one, both are very sharp with nice DOF and color.

Great shots Arlon!

While the second one is sharp, has great DOF and is technically a great photo, I love the first one. It has all the other attributes and in addition, the colors are amazing.

Thanks for the comments, I like the upper one more too. Lower one just helps emphasize the importance of camouflage in the weed patch.
