The Daily Bucket is a regular series from the Backyard Science group. Here we talk about Mother Nature in all her glory, especially the parts that live nearby. So let us know (as close as you are comfortable) where you are and what's going on around you. What's the weather like? Seen any interesting plants, bugs or critters? Are there birds at your feeders? Deer, foxes or peahens in your yard? Seen any cool rocks or geological features? Post your observations and notes here. And photos. We like lots of photos. :)
No Bucket in the queue, so here's a quickie: just a couple of photos I shot over the weekend:
Some interesting bark on a tree near my apartment.
A Brown Anole with his lunch. I think I saw little lehgs wiggling, so I think it's a salamander rather than a worm. It was almost as long as the Anole, though, so it took him a lot of work to get it down--and it wiggled the entire time.
And now it's your turn--let us know what's going on in your neck of the woods. :)
