Random Fascinations

I decided to show you some random stuff I found today. This is a very good thing because I originally planned on making each of these an individual post. Instead I'm going to take the lazy way out.

The bird you see above is about the size of a sparrow. I'm guessing that it probably is some kind of sparrow, or at least is maybe related. What I find interesting about this bird is its yellow shoulder marks. And I know I've seen this type of bird somewhere before, but after a preliminary search I decided I'm too lazy right now tofind its identity.

So why am I bringing you these geese? They are just two geese standing on top of Carpenter Lake Dam. Well, What we have here are geese doing what geese do best. These poop machines are showing why so many people around here dislike them.

I still like them though because rain always cleans the dam and they don't fill this nature park too much with their droppings. My friends the geese. They love what they do.

 S is for snake, but after about one tenth of a second I knew this was not. What it is is a twig that looks like an S. So S is really for Sharkbytes because it was her that first looked for letters in nature, and now I do it too when I see something even close. Go visit her blog when you're done here.

My last little prize for you today is this little chipmunk. This is my first chipmunk picture of the year! This little fella thought he could hide from me, but no little critter can long evade the watchful gaze of an Everyday Adventurer.

That's right. I can watch them like a hawk. (That's a clue.) Keep watching!
