Default Just a Fly on the Wall

I caught this guy looking at me when I was getting some flower macro shots. Clearly it just wanted some attention, so of course I was more then happy to swing the camera around...


I personally love how it tilts its' head so it is perfectly horizontal even though the body is on a tilt. Very interesting creatures...

Gorgeous shot with great color. What focal length did you use?
