Raccoon ~ (Procyon lotor)
Bumped into this fella relaxing in the oaks at Circle B last week. Despite his obvious lack of feathers I felt compelled to take a picture.
Thanks for visiting!

An unexpected encounter this morning with a red fox. It paused and gave me a few photographs before continuing on its way.
Thanks for visiting!

Alligator - Circle B Bar Reserve
No, your eyes are not deceiving you, no feathers or beaks today. This was taken at Circle B. A group of tiny alligators huddling together on a log. I wanted to do more for this shot, better angle, position - but I was afraid Mamma would object, and there were some large (I mean LARGE!) alligators at Circle B.
For cold-blooded creatures, this gave me a warm feeling.
Thanks for visiting!

Red Squirrel (Tamiasciurus hudsonicus)
This groovy squirrel got his hands on a tasty mushroom. There is a resemblance to the psilocybin mushrooms that are commonly known as Magic Mushrooms. Although I am sure it is just a healthy dose of fungus, it makes me wonder what would happen to a hyperactive neurotic little rodent if it were to ingest magic mushrooms? In my mind, a relaxed philosophical discussion on the nature of existence with the ducks on the other side of the park.
