Re: The Nature Photography Thread
Are you sure he's a he? Maybe he's a she, and she may be going to lay eggs. I can't think of another reason a black rat would be out during the day!

Re: The Nature Photography Thread
Thanks guys!! Jamie was sooooo funny-- I was lying in bed reading (yeah, rough day) and he comes bounding back to the bedroom yelling for me to hurry up, hurry up, come see... lol. He was soooo proud of himself for being able to show me a snake in the yard. :-)
Kyle, no, I don't know the sex. Just called it a he. |

Re: The Nature Photography Thread
I'd really hoped the web would show up more, but heck - at least it's in focus

Re: The Nature Photography Thread
Very nice rhea!
You could try misting the web real gently (so that the spider doesn't make a run for it  )

Re: The Nature Photography Thread
I went for a nice walk today along our creek. I was REALLY HOPING to see a garter... it had just rained, hard, and then the sun came back out full force, so I thought to myself, Self, this is IT... you will find garters today!!! But noooooo.... no snakes at all. Sigh.
However, I did find this! This is the first crayfish I've ever noticed by our creek before-- but a while ago Kyle suggested a pic of a mud pile I'd posted was a crayfish home-- and apparently he was right. :-)  I wouldn't have posted this pic because it's blurry, but look, in the lower right corner... there's a tiny little critter. Crayfish baby?? Spiderling??  Keep AWAY!!! I shall EAT YOU!!  |
