Hi, thanks for all the nice words everybody! 

I was very happy to find some of these bugs this past year, and to my luck all 3 turned out pretty decent.

Thank you, there was definitely some good competition this month. Your entry was just as impressive IMO. I'm heading to TX tomorrow for 5 or 6 days, so maybe if I'm lucky I'll find something just as nice as your brittle star.
