Well…I kind of have some mammal pics…
I’m currently in Vermont hanging out with my dad. I’ve gotten in a short hike the last couple mornings and I came upon these two mounds shortly into the first hike
Shit, oh dear! (literally
)
I’m no scatologist but I’m guessing they were dropped within the previous 12 hours. Both were ambient temperature and there had been some heavy rain prior to that.
I sure had my head on a swivel and was singing some bear songs while continuing with the hike.
Since then, I’ve seen 3 blacks….crazy…. Two yesterday while driving the back roads with my dad and today, one walked under his balcony while we were out enjoying the sun.
Sheese, I haven’t seen a bear in WA in years.
Since then I’ve read that WA has nearly 3X the population but VT has a higher population density.
Next time out I’ll bring some honey and try to get some Yellowstone/Bisonesque bear shots

My daughter is a biologist working with a conservation/outdoor education nonprofit in San Diego. On one of their conservation workcrews the other day she spotted this ex-bat impaled on a cactus. The bio team was trying to decide if maybe it just had an unfortunate crash, or if it was the victim of a loggerhead shrike (which impale their prey for leverage and storage)
The ants make it look like it was a revenge killing
