Painted Turtle

Today,  when I checked why the Catbird and the Robin were avoiding our ground birdbath (garbage can lid),  I discovered a Painted Turtle (Chrysemys picta).  

After he climbed out, I put him in a cage briefly to get some close-up shots.

He was not amused...

Fox

This morning around 6:45 AM, a wee fox came hunting through our yard as I was in the kitchen making chocolate zucchini muffins for Mom.

(The video is a bit shaky as I had to be on tiptoe reaching over the sink to see out the window.)
