Same critters as yesterday- they like these boxes I guess. She got Agro!! Scrunched her little rump up ! Maybe aggressive, who knows? Maybe I’m just the first person to pay attention to her!? Anthropomorphise much ?!

Seems everyone in the county knows that we take odd rescues! Today 2 large, cuddly white rats! Good grief. More mouths to feed. Cute though.

New photo series "Birds pooing on cars". This osprey has taken to hanging out over the highway in the mornings. He sits there until he does his business, then flies off. I guess hobbies are hard to come by if you're a bird? Caught the 2nd one ...

My blacklights have been on since just before dark. I took my first look at the sheet about 10 minutes ago. Lots of typical moths: zales, laughers, orthosias, emeralds. AND THEN.... This guy! My first giant waterbug (Lethocerus americanus) of the...

Here's a fascinating insect I met today. A beautiful example of Batesian mimicry, this "bumble bee" is actually a robber fly in the genus, Laphria.

The cover photo for this group reminds me of one of the funnest things we did with our son (who just graduated as Valediction from his HS this weekend FYI) when he was a boy. We loved finding praying mantises in our yard and one time we created a ...
