    Yeah taught that photographer guy to pull me up for a water ski today. next time I'll make sure he brings his camera aboard. He'd make a great spotter.

    I caught a brief glimpse of a row of babies turkey and their mama.  Too late to grab the phone (or, actually, too early to remember where I left it) but, dang!, were they ever the cutest little things!

    This is a western fence lizard I saw yesterday while visiting Empire Mine State Park in Grass Valley, CA.  I sat down to rest for a few minutes and this guy climbed up the brick garden fence next to me.  I talk to it for a while until his or her eyes started to slowly close.  When I got up to leave, the lizard followed me with it's eyes.  So I sat back down and talked to it some more until it got droopy eyed again.  I must go back and visit again sometime!

    big girl has been laying eggs in our yard for a good 10 years now. Always happy when i see her so i can walk her back to the pond. Avoiding getting squashed.

    Whoa! Snapping turtle?  She’s huge!

    Was at a local school near me playing volleyball and we found one in the parking lot. Relocated her back to her pond with a giant garbage can. She was not happy! That beak will take some fingers!

    I’m sure she appreciates the escort! Good for you! ❤️

    Yep. First time I saw her in our yard took her a few blocks away to a big pond. The next morning, right back on our lawn. Amazing skills to find the way back. Realized I should let her do her thing and just follow it back. 
    Have to keep your eyes on the road. Lot's of critters on the move.

    Wow. Wild area. We have coyotes here. Seldom seen. A rare occurrence, once a guy walking dogs here, had a sick coyote stalking his dogs on leash. Had to fight it off. Good to be aware of what's around you. Looks like you are.
