Varying Critters

If there's one thing that I enjoy doing it's going on adventures with the little man. He's got a hell of an adventure spirit that's for sure! We were out trying to get some fishing done and we were playing around the shore and he was sitting down when this dragonfly happened to land right on him.

I've seen it once or twice before but it's really interesting how young animals and wildlife will sort of flock to a child knowing that they are young as well and probably won't be something that hurts them. That was certainly the case with this dragonfly!

The poor thing put a little too much trust in the little man though hahaha he ended up getting him soaking wet! He couldn't fly away with his wings sopping wet so it was just crawling around on my hand for a while.

I didn't want to hurt it so I decided it was best for the thing to hang out on a tree for a while to wait for the wings to dry out. There were some other kids in the area so we had to be careful not to put it down on the ground or something for fear that it would get crushed accidentally.

In that same trip we found a turtle that just laid its eggs! I was walking over to a different fishing spot when all of a sudden I saw something dart out on the side of me and it scared be a bit, I'll be honest. Turns out it was just a turtle looking to get back to the water!

Some guy was coming by walking his dog and the dog was torturing the poor turtle hahaha. It kept trying to get it in its mouth so it could pick it up, I don't think it was trying to hurt it but more to play with it. The turtle wasn't having it and hid inside it's shell which was good. The dog was determined to try though! The owner thankfully stopped the dog from keeping on torturing the poor thing and it popped back in the water with some assistance.

We made sure to get over to the nest though and check it out! I didn't want to dig any of it up because I didn't want to end up ruining one of the eggs or anything but it was pretty darn cool to see!

This was definitely an interesting day full of all kinds of different critters that we don't get to see on a regular basis.
