Love looking at baby birds.
Raise a few hundred in my lifetime and will continue.

I just loved it, I've never had the opportunity to watch baby birds like that, I think I will leave my wreath up inappropriately long every year now! House Wrens have executed a hostile takeover and I can't watch them because they're armored up like fort knox!

here's a spider Nikki found while weeding the back yard...not sure what kind it is.







my brother and I always called them skin spiders since they were the color of our skin.....

Tibellus oblongus.

N. n. natrix. Much smaller than the one I posted pictures of before, probably about 80-90 cm. Really dull colours, it looks like it's about to shed soon.









Oh and today I shot the mink I threatened to shoot about 3 weeks ago.

Excellent Natrix pics, Stefan. How do you get so close everytime?

I approach the snakes by being a sneaky *******.

No, snakes are easy. Zootocas are hard.

I think you were away when posted pictures of the other Natrix, don't know if you saw those pictures.
