I had to zoom in quite a bit to take the shot but here is a shot of my Indian stars doing their thing.



The lone female taking a break afterwards. It's pretty warm down here in S. Texas this time of year so they frequently gather 'round the waterin' hole for a drink throughout the day.



It's hard to catch him eating because as soon as I get close he will turn and come near me so I just had to take what I could get.





That's all for now. Hopefully I'll be updating soon with some nesting pics.

I thought the same thing. That male looks so small compared to her. Congrats and good luck.

It's not that he's small, it's just that she is really large. 10"+.

I need to double check but I believe he's 5.5-6".

Looking back at that pic, I can see how it looks. It was an odd angle and it does look a little funny.

Here's a little size comparison so you can see just big this girl is. I took this pic after running the sprinkler yesterday afternoon as it tends to get him a little excited...
