Yesterday was walkin around some, wasn't sure if I was gonna photo anything, many flowers but not so interesting. But then I came across:
#1. This fella here. What an absolutely splendid looking little shitkneader! So took some pictures of it then went on. But it wasn't the only one I met, as fate (and nature) ordered. Here's an album of them.
#2. This one just hit the jackpot it seems.
#3. Out on the dry, struggling forward with 10 metres/hour speed, searching for a handful of poop.
#4. I came across them fairly far from each other mostly in different micro-bioms. The previous ones were inside deciduous forest, this out in an open meadow.
