This little guy took advantage of a warm November evening to climb the glass in my kitchen door.

The amazing six-legged frog

depscribe has posted:

Young John Etters of Putnam County, New York, phoned the newspaper to report that he had found a six-legged frog. Indeed he had. In researching the story I wrote to go with the picture I learned that they aren't all that rare, though most die at an early age -- they're easy prey.

A happy sight

depscribe has posted:

No one who grows tomatoes is happy to see a tomato horn worm -- unless it looks like this one. Those white things are the cocoons of the braconid wasp, which will grow to adulthood by consuming the worm (itself the larva of the sphinx moth). Such tomato worms are best left alone, to be the nursery for the little wasps.

Yellowjacket Spider

I have no way of knowing the proper name of this little inch-long arachnid, but I was much taken with how closely it resembles the yellowjacket hornet, and I suspect that its coloration has something to do with that miserable stringing insect.

Mosaic moth

The name is made up. I have no idea what this georgeous insect is really called, though it is certainly a moth. Somewhere there is a tree where this moth blends in perfectly, but it wasn't there the day I took this.

A common snail

Maybe an inch long, this little fellow was moving -- yes, at a snail's pace -- across some concrete.

The front-yard fawn

depscribe has posted:

This fawn wandered into the front yard in Connecticut. It put up quite a fuss; soon, neighborhood dogs were circling. I scooped it up and took it to a spare stall in the barn. It required warm goat milk every few hours until a fawn rescue organization could be found.

That means it hasn't been hybridized to a fare-thee-well. This is from a cutting collected in an old graveyard and replanted.
