But mainly not to be miles out with focus Worcester Lad wrote in post #15902027 A pre-historic looking critter, nice find and capture, Bas. You are right it does look pre-historic, thanks for the kind words. IanClark wrote in post #15902157 hahah, what's the oops for  .. did you let it go back into your own garden? I didn't put it back, but I left it walking distance from the plant, and today it has some dismembered leaves.
