Weekly Critter Summary

I took a short hike on Turkey Mountain recently and surprised a couple of deer. They just moved off a short distance, keeping an eye on me. This one particular didn’t seem any in hurry to leave.

On the same hike, I came across an armadillo snuffling around the woods raising dust. It didn’t see me but when it did it ran off a few feet. I’ve seen more armadillos out in the woods this summer than I have seen in a long time.

Lots of livestock at the State Fair this year. I always enjoy looking at them.

Closer to home I came across this cottontail living in our front flower bed. It just sat there looking at me and then hopped back into its cover.

And in the home, LJ the cat catching some warm sun.

I’m linking with Saturday’s Critters. Go check them out!!

    Hello,
    The armadillo is a cool critter, we do not see them in Maryland. Love the cute deer and the bunny.
    I like looking at the cattle too. LJ looks comfy in the sun puddle. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Take care, have a happy new week!

    An armadillo! I have never seen one, even in zoos or nature centers. I was going to ask if you had them when I responded about Mickey’s armadillo toy.

    Those are mostly ordinary critters — but then there’s the armadillo! None of them in my state!

    Hikes are always great when you encounter wildlife. I hope we see an armadillo when you take us to Turkey Mountain.
