Critters and wildlife in your area - post your pics

Even more like a Dobe pup, he bit me hard enough to draw a little blood when I picked him up
That made me laugh too, but didn't want to appear to be laughing at you... isn't he pretty small? I love the small critters with big attitude. Hope he didn't hurt you!

He made me squeak! It was more startling than painful. 🤣 He fit nicely in the palm of my hand but as you can see he has a big head and a lot of mouth and attitude!
 
You probably wouldn't categorize these as Critters but, OMG. Once they cut the soybean Field behind us and the day got warm, the ladybugs were amazing! They were everywhere! Flying in the air, on the house and on you! I barely went outside that afternoon because they were so bad. They were landing everywhere on you! In fact, I had one down my shirt! I was told a long time ago that they are on the soybeans and when they get harvested they head to the cliffs to hibernate and my house is a cliff! LOL But I'm not alone... they're on everyone's houses. It's amazing. Its days like that when I almost wish for a killing freeze.🙃

And there is no escaping it regardless how tight your house is. I've only seen a few this year (so far) but maybe it's too dry for them or something.

Some folks say "a ladybug landing on you is good luck!"
 
Another one of Remy’s finds 😬 It was about 4ft long! I was coming from the opposite direction the picture was taken, so the snake was mostly hidden by the plants. I noticed it when Remy tried to go over and sniff it (of course I pulled him away lol). I believe it’s a Black Racer and they are harmless. It also seemed to be dead which I thought was kind of odd considering how I found it? IMG_7855.webp

Wow he's cool looking. Looks like a hose laying on the ground. The ones around here that are that long are usually 3 times as wide and easily seen. 😆 Although I really shouldn't say that. I'm sure I've walked by some without even noticing. Just because of the camouflage colors.
