Not All That Creepy Crawly

Isn't nature amazing? This was crossing my path this morning:



After comparing a few photos online, I believe this is a milipede, as opposed to a centipede. I won't bet my reputation on it, though.

I know the picture is fuzzy. I either need a better camera on my phone or to start carrying one of our three cameras with me. Anyway, you can still see how brightly colored the legs are. Pretty amazing, really. The kids sure would have enjoyed seeing this with me. They love looking at bugs of all types, and my adventure girl is almost always happy to move insects or spider webs for her big brother. Cute, right?
