Funny Anminal's whilst Caching

[+zShadowWalker(2E0SUD)]

Since we are out and about alot hunting these caches it dawned on me that we must see some anmials doing strange or funny things, so i though it would start this thread so the storys can be spred from some light entertainment

 

one things that i rember is a woodpecker not realising all things that stick up are not always mage of wood. By attacking a metal post. Last year a bird forgotten what type laning on a frozen canal and suddeneley realising that ice is slippy.

The black duck in this picture waggs its tail when you feed it bread.

I recently watched a seagull standing in one place and stamping its feet really fast.

I have never seen this before and I can only imagine that the worms think its raining

and come to the surface.

 

Funny thing was, I saw another one doing it the next week in a completely different place.

Isn't that called the 100th monkey effect?

This is a common sight round this way and you are right they are making worms think it is raining.

But has anybody ever seen a seagull doing this in the rain?

This is my most memorable animal encounter:

 

Gelt Woods Cache

 

This one was also memorable but for a different reason!

 

Bassenthwaite Lake

[+Family Hodge]

MUGGLES now there astrange breed of animal, what on earth are they out doing.

[+Haggis Hunter]

I still remember my bad experience of meeting these extremely ferocious wild animals!!!!

[+Jaz666]

Can anyone beat a Velociraptor?

Didn't get a picture, but did place a cache nearby.

You can beat it if you want, but I gave up dinosaur bashing for Lent!

[+zShadowWalker(2E0SUD)]

I have rembered there is allways the sentry to a Northen City with Aeroplane wings.

I'm quite proud of my cache GCVGMJ where you can see deer and prezwalski wild horses (though not actually wild) and ostriches .

 

Its a change from the norm!

[+Pharisee]

It's highly likely that you'll meet this lady, or one of her 'sisters' if you do the cache at Wimpole Hall. She was a bit inquisitive but quite friendly

 

 

Spotted this horse wearing a mosquito net earlier in the year whilst setting a cache near Great Offley.

 

[+fellsmanhiker]

not exactly funny animals,but these 2 Fell ponies were taken at nearly 2000 feet up on Place Fell.

[+Jango & Boba Fett]

... where you can see deer and prezwalski wild horses (though not actually wild) .. .

Knettishall Heath Country Park GC89C9 also has deer and Perzwalski's Wild Horses and in addition there is the Norfolk Wildlife Trust's Flying Flock of Shetland, Black Welsh Mountain, Herdwick and Hebridean sheep - unfortunately they never seem to be flying while I'm around.

 

Visited The Old Mines GC4E74 on Tuesday and saw not only Red Deer but Red Squirrels and a group of seals, each of whom was perched on top of its own large boulder along the shore; not sure whether they were a pod, spring or plum, obviously they were not a raft of seals as they were all out of the sea.

This pair surprised me when on route around "Roman Remains" Multi (GC51C1) :

 

[+Pharisee]

Not exactly an animal but this bought a smile to my face when I spotted it close to "Soda's Stash".

Wonder who lives there.... Monica Lewinsky, maybe or Gillian Taylforth

My favourite animal spotted whilst caching was this character, on my way to Burn Foot.

 

I think my favourite comedy animal experience was up in Edinburgh, after doing What A Capital View. I was sitting in the car when I spotted a little robin hopping and pecking his way around the car park. All of a sudden he flew of and went *wallop* into a lamppost. Luckily for him he bounced back from it like he was made of rubber, and then just stood there for a few moments looking slightly shellshocked. Then he flew off and did exactly the same thing again...and again. Took him four attempts to get airborne, and I'm amazed he didn't knock himself out.

Spotted this on the beach. Now this is a funny animal.

[+stora]

Reminds me of a date I once had :0

Not funny as such but it certainly brings a smile to hear buzzards peeping over every woodland cache I've done recently. These birds are making a terrific comeback and re-colonising areas where they have not been seen in years.

It's a very rare sight in Scotland. They don't usually need to do it....

heres our offering funny...but cute!

[+Alibags]

I have a pic of them as well. I know which cache you were doing!!!

 

[+Simply Paul]

Ditto If anyone's wondering, it's Teach's Hole by JollyJax.

 

[+Haggis Hunter]

Not really a funny animal, but it was funny that it reminded me of someone who is a bit of an a**, and when I called it by that persons name, it came over and posed for the camera. (Log)

 

 

a** - looks like TPTB won't let you call a donkey by it's other name?
