Birds and butterflies are great. This was on my mother's porch when we got home from dinner. Western Diamondback in Tucson. It rattled hard the entire time it took me to catch it and move it.

They're fast and shy, but loud. It's hard to take good photos of them.

Oh that guy! Saw him but didn't know his name. These were Colorado ladies though.

I used a broom to shoo him into a big bucket. Then he went over the fence. I've nothing against rattlesnakes or spiders.

This buck enjoyed a pumpkin snack on my neighbor's porch last night. I wish she'd been home because he was literally right outside her living room window which would have been a cool perspective to watch from.
