Baby Mosshead Warbonnet

So, I always get asked how big critters are. I showed my family the following photo and explain how the warbonnet swam over my strategically located mirror.
My son immediately says "How big is that fish?" I said small. And I proceeded to show him the WB on the "ball" of my mirror, where it meets the handle.
He said "Cool, but how big is your mirror?" So I went out and found something (a dime) the same size as the "ball" on the mirror and inserted that into the photo.
He looked and said "HOLY SMOKES! That is tiny." I had a good chuckle and I was surprised to see the size comparison. I often think about bringing something to compare size. But it is very difficult to place objects next to critters. I did use a Lego figure once. But George lost Bee in Cozumel, so that was short lived :-)
