A large millipede stopped by for a visit this evening. I like they way they seem to glide, with all those little legs zipping right along. I can barely walk across the floor without tripping sometimes with just two legs!

Pf, they probably trip all the time, but who's going to spot it with all the other legs covering for the clumsy one?

Neat creatures, they can get pretty hefty!

They are pretty interesting. Was surprised to see one so late in October as things are getting chilly at nite. Probably looking for a warm spot to curl up for the winter!
