This little fellow was catching some rays on our tomato planter on the front 
deck (last year it was a chilli planter* but the winter was far too cold).  
After a while he popped into the planter and had a dig around, emerging every 
few minutes to keep an eye out.

It really surprised me to see him there as the planter box is only about 3ft 
long and 1-1/2ft wide.  I guess it's a signal that our compost must be full of 
tasty bugs.

K10D, F*300 f/4.5, 1/250th at f/9.5, shot through a double glazed window that 
should be washed.  This is straight out of the camera except for a resize as I 
don't have much in the way of processing tools on the laptop.

* If anyone wants a recipe for a delicious tomato & jalapaƱo relish, let me 
know and I might dig it up when I get back from Aus.  It also works well with 
Thai Super chillies if you want a bit more punch.

Cheers,
Dave
