Critters!

Check out my pet Lizard; Jose

I found this squirrel in a tree, he did not seem to be too bothered by my approach.  He has an acorn in his mouth, he is not eating the berries from the tree.

I found this Snowy Egret down by a small inlet.  It was sitting on top of someone's boat dock roof and stalking fish occasionally.

These minows and this mussle were also in the same inlet as the Egret.

Horseshoe Crab

Not much to say about this thing, I found it on a trip to Tampa, FL.  I think it was mating season or something, because there were tons of these crabs washed up on the beach.  They were all dead.  Yeah, this is a pretty good size one about 15 inches long and at least 6 inches wide. Creepy lookin thing, isn't it?

Found these coon tracks in my yard, they were after the remains of my

pumpkin.

Found this Painted Turtle in my yard.  Again, not much to say about it.  Neat colors on it, unfortunately, the picture of the top of his shell came out dark and a touch blurry.
