animals on the route

[ashnikes]

lets see some pictures of animals you found while caching....

 

there were a family of like 10 of these kids, i thought they might like starburst, turns out they did.

 

saw a baby armadillo, a rabbit, and a bird of prey of some sort carrying off a meal.

a bunch of millipedes, must be mating or something, a huge bullfrog, a deer, and tons of frogs, and spiders in the last 24 hours caching. im going to have to start taking more pictures.

Good enough?

I was thinking more like real animals, but thats pretty awesome,

 

my old camp counselor, told me a story once of how him and a few of his buddies decided for their senior prank in high school they stole a huge bison stature like that, drove it several miles up the road, and replanted it in the middle of town. amazing. must weigh even more than a live one.

This one however, is 12 ft. tall! A little much to be picked up and placed into a pickup truck.

I live in an area INFESTED with deer. I've had them jump right in front of the car... I live in BUCKS county... Oh, and the DEER tick rate here is crazy. Highest area for lyme disease in the world because of that.

Two of the more impressive animals we've come across while caching

here's mine ....

saw a deer while caching a few days ago but was slow with the camera.

In the same area, I found a cache in which a scorpion was hanging out.

 

I was too busy trying not to wet myself to get pics of him.

 

Not being from texas, I'd never seen a scorpion in the wild... let alone falling out of a lidless cache.

 

P.S. Scorpion must have been a purist because it didn't log the find...

I saw this deer right off the side of the road.

 

 

Then she ran off for a bit and came back to the road with her youngn's

I saw these animals about a mile from a cache I found at Mikumi National Park in Tanzania.

 

 

A bit further down the road...

 

 

And lots of these right next to the cache...some were about 10" long

This guy was so well camouflaged that I nearly stepped on him

 

While checking on one of my caches, I looked up and saw these two staring at me. They seemed quite curious as to what I was doing.

Saw a herd of elk on the way to a cache...or is it BIGFOOT?

 

Ringneck Snake, Diadophis punctatus

Don't have pictures but in MO there were 3 armadillos on 1 trail once and here the other day I looked for a cache and found a turtle (dnf on cache) and the next day i came back to look again and in the exact same spot there was a black snake... i hightailed it out of there!

We saw this one near Decatur Texas. It was a coyote at one time.

 

 

Saw this bat near Benbrook Lake in North Texas. []

Found this guy while scouting out new cache locations. I know it's a guy because male box turtles have red eyes. Females have brown eyes.

Then you'd dig my newest cache: Box Turtle Hideout

 

Here's some cell phone pics I took two days ago:

found a micro that was placed in a taxidermied box turtle shell, with a jelly turtle inside, it was super realistic looking in its hiding spot.
