This green guy was staying dry today by hanging out on the window at Starbucks. I think I heard him order a Decaf Double tall non-fat extra-dry cappuccino.
Anyone know what it is? The picture makes it look ginormous, but the main body was maybe two inches long … not counting that sinister-looking tail thingy.
He’s my favorite color. Nice pic!
My husband looking over my shoulder at my email says mayflie
OK, so I wanted to make sure he was right so I googled mayflie and yup that’s what it is. Sad though it says adult mayflies live from 30 minutes to 1 day depending on the species, not unlike a dragonfly. So it looks like he probably won’t be at Starbuck’s tomorrow.
Crissy – thanks. I think you’re right. Here’s the wikipedia entry for those who are curious: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mayfly.
What a way to spend your sole day of adulthood.
