my bat mitzvah ROCKED posted:My back yard is nothing but woods so there is all of that stupid nature poo poo Same. My wildlife encounters: -I constantly see idiot deer running through the woods with really jittery legs all the time. There's one male deer that looks like it's gonna develop trophy-tier antlers in a few years, but I rarely see him. Usually its the does flicking their big dumb ears idly as they stare at me with their most likely inbred idiot fawns that all look the same. And for fun once, I walked up to a girthy elm tree with one of the deer craning their necks up to look at me. I squatted behind the tree and remained perfectly still for several seconds, completely hidden from the deer's view. Then it snorted and ran away like there was a pack of wolves coming for it. They are so, so, goddamn dumb. -I also saw two(2) raccoons earlier when I went to check up at a moss patch I transplanted around a fern garden. They disappeared into a large stick pile I build up with fallen limbs and twigs. How long have they been there  -There's also two fatass ground hogs living underneath the end of another stick pile. Sometimes when I go outside I catch a glimpse of one scurrying back into its hole super fast. They don't seem to do much else, though. -There was a female green orchard weaver spider, Leucauge venusta identifiable via an orange spot on its genitals, making its home above the ferns. It seemed to have moved away, but every time I tried to feed it, it would run up to the entangled insect or grub, tap on it with its legs, then immediately run away. It just didn't want to be fed. I'm trying to help you, just eat that pathetic thing Fortunately, most of my donations eventually fell through its webs and got gobbled up by large black ants. -Also, I think its mate got killed by another spider. One day I saw an olive drab colored spider in its web, just chilling with it and still alive, probably the male wanting to have hot spider sex. The next day, I look up a few feet and saw the same olive spider crunched up and half-shrouded in silk in the web of a different spider with a fat abdomen. What a jabroni. Their webs also accumulated a lot of junk, from fly carcasses to fallen leaves. Wonder if they care? -My coneflowers attract pretty little bees. They are a good and cool pairing with my silver mound artemisia. I also remember seeing an enormous black cicada emerge when I did hedge trimming, buzzing loudly and flying away when I disturbed it. I hope it's okay, that thing was dazzling. -There's also such an impressive amount of robins and bluejays that it's essentially an avian house. Probably because there's a mulberry tree growing in the back, and apparently mulberries are like crack cocaine to them. It also has the side effects of turning their poo poo magenta

hey, living in an apartment is no excuse for not having nature things. I see bunnies and squirrels all the time, and the occasional giant rat also not an excuse for not having delicious produce. Get a pot, get a plant, get food

By us we have mud daubers that have that same color. They're pretty friendly but, I won't lie, I kinda flipped out when the first one I saw showed up. It's a loving 3/4" wasp that is loving blue. What the hell?

I have blue mud daubers with the exact coloring, except they are parasitic wasps that are probably capturing other insects behind my back to turn into wasp baby factories. Wasps in general suck and freak me out, man.

They're bigger than him and not afraid to get up in his poo poo.
