Sticking to a building in the morning.
|
|
Many Shads lingering on the side of a wall in mid-afternoon.
|
|
|
City sidewalks can be a problem.
|
|
An attractive little Shad sunning himself.
|
|
|
This white wall attracted many Shads.
|
|
Another attractive pose.
|
|
|
This Shad has just shed its skin.
|
|
A nice wall grouping on white.
|
|
|
Yet another sunning Shadfly.
|
|
More white wall groupings.
|
|
|
And more groupings.
|
|
Where all Shads end up. In a little pile.
|
|
|
Shadfly on hand.
|
 |
Prior to any skin shedding
|
 |
|
In 'pulse' state.
|
 |
Preparing to shed its skin.
|
 |
|
Shad thrusts the tail.
|
 |
Skin is almost off now.
|
 |
|
A Shad and it's former skin.
|
 |
Beautiful silhouette.
