Now What?

Your rest area on the information super highway...

You never know what might be rattling around out there.

Camouflage

See if you can spot the deer in this photo. (Hint: You'll probably have to use the arrows to enlarge the view.)

Hiding in clear sight. That would  have been the case for this deer had it not flicked its tail. In a dull, brown wooded environment, those white tails are like beacons. Seems like a design flaw if you ask me...

Towhee

An Eastern Towhee almost in the open. These darn birds like to be among the sticks and branches so it's tough to get an opportunity to catch one in the wide open spaces.

Bath Time For Robin

Apparently, late afternoon is bath time for many of the Robins in Tom Sawyer Park. This one spent considerable time lathering, rinsing and repeating.

And this is what the creek sounded like. You can start the sound playing and then view the photo at full size to feel like you were there. Watch out for splashing!
