This Copperhead was enjoying his lunch in the middle of my shop floor.

I was pig hunting with the kids in a blind last month when this guy showed up, not bad for a zoomed in cell phone picture 5 minutes after I took this I was watching a couple hornets buzzing in front of me when this guy jumped right on my face, I wish I had a picture of that!

Smokepoles that is the little guy, tree frog, with the loudest voice in the woods at night. Unusual to see one during the day because they are so well camoed. They can give the Chameleon a run for his money when it comes to changing colors and matching back grounds. Varmintnv were you real close to the cottontail or big lens. Great pic.

A little of both actually. I was maybe 30' away, but I was using a Nikon point and shoot camera with 42x optical zoom. I've since upgraded to the Nikon P90 with 83x optical zoom. Not the quality of glass of a good DSLR lens, but it works for my purposes.

A couple pics of the vultures at were circling me. I heard that there was a Golden eagle hanging out in the area. So I climbed 1k feet and waited.

What's up with this crow?

We caught a pic of this guy Tuesday through the spotting scope on a Az bighorn hunt. He wasn't a shooter, but a nice photo op. We've seen 15-25 sheep every day. Wish it was my tag, my friend is going to get a nice one. Just happy to help on this hunt.

I'm hiding and you cant find me.

It just a pelican but who would have thought they are common in Wyoming??

Rock chuck teaching me there are two ways to shoot varmints

I would have liked to put a bullet at the top of that rock but he is in the safe zone and knows it. This white tailed prairie dog has some different coloring to him and you don't see them climb often
