This jumped out of a tree, right past my ear. Happened too fast to even flinch. Smooth Green Snake, I think.

Decided I wasn't getting any younger so if I didn't buy another motorcycle one of these days I might not have the opportunity. Well... picked up a new Nightster Special for cruising the country roads this summer. It "sleeps" beside the B2601.

I've never been into motorcycles but it sure does look nice. Did you pick up that shiny trailer too so that you can haul the bike around?

Thank you for the compliment on the cycle. As to the trailer, in the fall of 2021 we traded the BX2230 in on a B2601 and needed a bigger trailer to accommodate the longer tractor. Yep, it might be called on to haul the Harley if I don't keep the rubber side down!!!

Spanish moss?

Yes, and the 50+ year old oak growing the frame.

Stunning! The colors and pattern are amazing. I don't know what that pattern does for the moth or butterfly but it sure works for me.

Cool snake. Could be a rough or smooth green snake. Rough has slightly keeled scales.

We have a good amount of Rough Greens where I live (Deep East Texas), but I've caught both smooth and rough (as a kid) in Independence KS (South and East of you) along the Verdigris River. Great pic!

cool.

The coachwhips fall out of trees around here, they are like 5ft+ in length, enough to get you really excited and/or mild heart attack.

A couple years ago I had 2 drop from the tree, one landed on me then onto the floorboard of the tractor, it turned at looked at me for like ever(probably like 3 seconds, lol) before it slid off the floorboard onto the ground.

Seems my old buddy Bob showed up last night. I hadn't seen him since last fall.
Nothing on my cameras overnight, no skunk, no coons, no Opossum..
Only Bob. I guess everything else knew he was in the neighborhood.

Bob (or Bobbie) looks really healthy.

I dug a small wildlife pond in my sandy soil and then lined it with sodium bentonite as a proof of concept for a much larger pond dig that I am close to completing.

Although I have a trail cam pointed at this small pond and have gotten tons of video with wildlife enjoying it, at times I capture photos with my camera as I sit in my jeep.

These two young whitetail gave me a 20 minute show in the middle of day playing and romping in the water. They sure could use a good grooming! Their winter coats are rapidly leaving and in the meantime they sure look rough!

I was checking 1 of my hunting boxes. It was occupied.
