Green Anole, AKA American Chameleon

Nikon N90s, Nikon 105 f2.8 macro, Flash, Aperture priority ~f32,  Kodak E200 film

This one was well hidden in some nice green leaves.  Quite attractive!

Bug Enjoying Snack

Look carefully and you can see the unfortunate victim.  The funny mouth thing reminds me of the "smart bug" in the movie Starship Troopers, if any of you saw that.

A Texas A&M professor: Probably an immature of the leaffooted bug.  

Some of the assassin bugs (Reduviidae) look similar too.

Dick Locke: I believe it's an Assassin Bug as of 08/2004.
