of centipedes big and small

August 31, 2005

After twisting my ankle the other night, I saw a centipede on the wall, about an inch long. Since I photograph everything I find interesting these days, I put it in a little jar with a piece of paper over it. Normally, I would have a little jar with holes in the lid, but the trek to the kitchen was long and painful. The next morning, it was dead or in a dormant state, so I put it outside.

Now, if I had the experience of this fellow in Britain, I would no doubt have twisted the other ankle in the retrieval process.
