The Owl is one of a pair that live in Ms. Doris' backyard. As many lizards (anoles) as we have I have never seen one pull the shedding skin off with their mouth, look close. The red admiral butterfly flew around our front porch for several hours on Monday, we so enjoyed his visit.

Love the critters around your place!

How fun to see an owl! And a butterfly is always good to see. But that lizard shedding its skin is kind of icky. I'm so glad our skin comes off a little at a time! I wonder if it itches when it comes off like that.

Great photos!!! We have lots of anoles, but haven't seen any shedding their skin. Great owl picture too!!!

Darla! I’m so ashamed! Here I was thinking you were taking a break from blogging for some reason and you have a new blog! If you hadn’t mentioned the owl picture at Cindees’ Garden I never would have known.

How lucky to have a Barred Owl in your midst. He's a beauty. And the curious lizard, I have only seen snakes shed...cool. Love the Red Admiral...love Any butterfly.
Thanks for stopping by. I have not been good at commenting lately. We have been spoiled with early nice weather, even tho we have had snow and rain this week. All is good.
Sorry to read of the health issues...I'd swear we were sisters. Same aches, pains, and then some. I know MRI's only too well. That is not a good thing. Hope your Doc gets to the problem and can help you. Pain when we want to be gardening is a real issue. Prayers. Your garden is already so very lovely.
BlessYourHeart

Is that a owl? A real owl, oh how lucky you are to see that. And the lizard, which might be dinner for the owl, and the butterfly which might be dinner for the lizard...

I have an owl that hoots every night and sometimes another joins in. I can count on those hoots. Wow look at that lizard. The butterfly is pretty.

Skeeter said...

We rarely see owls but do hear them. All the toads seem to have left us again. Me thinks the owl gets them at night....

Anoles are the neatest lizards in town! I love how they change colors and everyone that sees them for the first time get such a kick out of them. We have seem them shedding but nothing such as you captured. Great luck....

We have butterflies galore this year. Maybe because I have finally started to add spring bloomers to teh garden....

Wonderful to be surrounded by such amazing creatures and for them to hold still long enough for photos!

GRACE PETERSON said...

That owl is way cool. They're such majestic birds. Your other critters are cool too. Nice job capturing them.

Becky said...

Wish I could get a shot of the one I hear every night from across our pasture.
