Do you have a pet? If so, what kind?

Hi Gordon:

Sounds like a plan...my daughter is the shutter bug so will check with her for available snaps.

The only critter that pretty much poses for pictures is my daily oppossum.

Property backs on to about 800 acres of natural bush so there is no shortage of wildlife...also have the back 35 feet of property in natural state with some growth 8 feet tall to act as a break against the nasty little wood ticks that are so proliferate here....not to mention it makes a great hidding spot for the rabbits, nesting for the redwing blackbirds, snakes, etc..

Had a small flock of wild turkeys (7) out eating a couple of weeks ago but had to eventually shoo them away when they decided to invade the garden area.

Was kind of cool this aft when watering the garden...a bit windy and what I thought was a small piece of straw seemed to have blown up and lodged at the side of my glasses....wrong...was a baby praying mantis just over an inch long attached to the glasses frame...put him back on a tomato plant.

Will post some pics as soon as the 'kid' gives them to me.
