She sees some mighty strange critters

 "Now mind you folks,  I only see these creatures furom Lynn's photos. I nevfur git out on the bike path to see this.  I'd much rather wait here fur Lynn to come home fur the treats and the brushies."







The snapping turtle may have lain her eggs during 
the night and was too cold and tired to move on.
I actually lifted her hind shell a bit off the ground.
She gave no reaction.  So I lifted again and pushed
at the same time.  She did hiss but did not try to
turn on me.  So I budged her a few inches off the
trail.  It was about 52 degrees that morn.


Black Rat Snake


The snake was also cold and did not want to move
when I spotted it too.  So when I tried prodding
it along,  it just wrapped itself around my bike tire.
I finally found a twig to convince it to move on.  These
two were only 50 feet apart that morning.




I see the Llama every time I bike.  But he's rarely this close to
the fence at the path.  He was already starting to grow back
his wool and this photo was taken one cold morning earlier in
the Spring,  when it was too cold too long.



And who doesn't enjoy seeing cows up close.  The llama is there
to protect half dozen mixed cows.  But I doubt there is anything
to bother them except flies.  




"I should be the only one in yer photos Lynn.  After all I
am nice and clean and don't need prodding and never 
need my wool sheared."


Thank you for stopping by for a visit and a comment.
It is much appreciated.
