WHAT THE HECK



I was working in the garden and about to put my camera down on the fence when I saw this.  It's amazing how fast your mind processes things and runs through the list of possible outcomes.  Scorpion?  Giant spider?  Something from the next SyFY channel movie?


Nah, it's the shell of a crawfish, or depending on where you are from, crayfish, mudbug or crawdad. My guess is a bird snatched one up from a puddle somewhere and sat here to dine on it.  You'd think they could clean up after they're done!  It would certainly be better for my heart rate the next time.

  3. I LOVE crawfish! And that's a biggie. My step son and his family came through on the way back Loisianna and brought some crawfish. We sat outside for hours eating them all. SO good!

  5. 1st Man,

    You don't expect to see a partial crawdad sitting on your fence next to the gate.
    Those birds they get into everything, and never clean up their messes, lol

  6. That is too funny. We don't see those kind of things around here. What I see is dog food in my bird bath water.

    1. Ha, dog food? I guess they get it and bring it to the bath so they can dine and bathe? LOL!
