I think the yellow guy just did change his clothes, and the "green guy" is them!

(The jagged outline and the little white fibers on the green one are typical of shucked skins, and it looks to me like the yellow one doesn't have its wings fully expanded yet.)

Thanks! My tactic is to make a lot of clicks and find some small % of useful photos. 8)

I did, actually. :D

As well as different date -- June 2005.

I commented to my wife that it looked like this fellow might be "cherrypicking" the archives for great shots -- and if so I love it 'cuz the pictures are very nice to look at :!: :D

BTW does "cherrypicking" have something with queueing theory? :D

Ah! You've been searching the Internet and found something like http://www.answers.com/topic/cherrypicking, I'd guess?

Well, the action they describe is pretty much the same as I had in mind, but I meant the word only in a positive sense. :D

Bingo! I know jou think positively. I thought "cherrypicking" is something like "searching for jewels". And I'm preparing some new "cherrypicks". :D
