Birding Boy Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 (edited) Blanding’s Turtle!!! Lifer, endangered, and just an awesome looking turtle. My sister spotted her first, after a bit I realized she was digging a nest at the gravelly side of the road. Hope the nest makes it. https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/82376426 Edited June 10, 2021 by Birding Boy Typo 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clip Posted June 10, 2021 Share Posted June 10, 2021 Gopher Tortoise-these are suppose to be endangered but you could not prove it by me as I have seen a bunch. I think I saw my first four the first month we moved to Florida. Have seen a number of them since in various place in Florida including a few young ones. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulK Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 This fellow has been in the tree outside our window all day, with crows harrassing it continuously from about 4:30am until mid-afternoon. No idea what got their goat. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea what got their goat. Coons are notorious for nest robbing, both for eggs and baby birds. The Crows probably recognized it as such and don't want it around their territory. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clip Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Terrible photo due to distance but this was one of the only two times I saw a badger. The second time I had no chance for a photo. Old photo from Colorado Pawnee National Grasslands was looking for Mountain Plover. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
