Miscellaneous Wildlife

[dpc]

Black-tailed prairie dogs, Grasslands National Park, south-western Saskatchewan two days ago. These creatures look a bit like Richardson's ground squirrels but are bigger. They live in huge colonies of thousands of animals.

Rainbow Whiptail or giant Ameiva (I'm no expert so anyone with a good identification - feel free!):

probably a female as it is not so brightly coloured...

I took this photo this morning from my from porch of all places.....

It's pretty nice to only have to walk 12ft from my couch to get a shot like this!

That's a very nice shot, Durf.

Just a moose, but in a pretty unique setting.

Well... looking on all these recent post... What is NOT miscellaneous wild life - the Little green out-lander or a Dinosaur Rex?!
On other hand: "It's pretty nice to only have to walk 12ft from my couch to get a shot like this!" - may be I figure out what Durf means? (BTW look at yourself trough the eyes of that bear - you should be as common as the bear itself = miscellaneous !!!)
Nice photos - from all of you!

Nice shot Durf; but in your shoes I would also have been very glad that it was only 12 ft to be behind a locked door again

She's looking like she's been caught on cam 'in flagrante delicto' Positively guilty expression...

Ha Ha Ha

Nice shot, Durf.

Keep cooking and shooting.

After I took this pic she walked out back and started digging around my chicken coop to get the scratch feed I tossed in there earlier.....I yelled at her for 5 minutes to scoot but then had to run her off with banging a pan and spatula together (she doesn't like loud noises!) LOL

Nice shot indeed, well captured (figuratively speaking ) but even though those bears are usually not that interested in eating humans , I wouldn't feel too comfortable with such an animal lurking around the house...
Guess you're more used to big wildlife in your 'neck of the wood'...
