We had a hatch of tiny baby spiders hanging from the screen door handle the other morning. Very cool. And spidery.

Snap Shot - Snapper laying eggs


It's egg-laying season again for the turtles. We have to keep an eye out for trutles crossing the road. They lay their eggs on dry land, often a good distance from the water. We have snappers and painted, probably others. The snapping turtles get pretty big. The one pictured was about 18 inches tail to head. Luckily, they are as shy as they are hazardous. Lots of swimming in the lake and no turtle attacks ;)

I took this picture last year. She picked a spot where we had just had a stump ground out. We kept an eye out, but never saw hatchlings.

Caught a Bass


...with my camera. This fella was just lazily prowling the lake shore. Looked about 14 inches long.
