It seems you all found the mama cat, so I don't need to point out where she was. Good job!

A couple today, some critters, possibly a trade

I'd love to trade, Kay - you're first on the list now, lol! I'm not looking for anything fancy or new, and it doesn't even have to be a Munson. I'm especially looking for dormant/SEV hot colors - good, tough plants for my frozen-chosen location. I love watching our cats watch the birds. They just can't help themselves as they stare at the hors d'ouvres outside the window. . . . Laurel

Great images of what I think is the Moon Jellyfish, Aurelia. This is the most common of jellies, and often found washed up on the shore in hard globs. I miss living near the coast. ;-(

If you take mama gooses photo - if you take her starfish and crab claw as the base of an equilateral triangle, then at the top is my turtle. Right above the word claw is my sleeping Canada Goose. And of course, as soon as the critter is pointed out to us we'll wonder how we ever missed it.

I've learned something new! How to do this stuff! Anyhow, here's what I thought I found: What looks like a fawn to me, in relation to the answer Jasdip posted. A chipmunk Little gray bird, a dove, perhaps? I had also thought that the black shadow immediately to the right of my "1" might be a black squirrel. Wrong. . . . . And yes, Annie, I kind of thought that was a snake, too, But it changed a lot when I enlarged the picture. Aren't imaginations fun? ? ? Rusty

Sorta like those darned tomato horn worms, you don't see them until they move.

Easy one today, but fascinating to see how well the camouflage works.

Jasdip, where are you getting all these pics...are they yours? Or are you finding them some place. I'm curious as, some of these are so hard to spot, I wonder if they're any easier in real life...perhaps they move and then they're easier to spot.

I did have one pic of a hidden creature I took, but he was easy to spot as he moved before I took the pic.

I see yours Annie! It's fascinating seeing how perfectly the camouflage works.

I knew mine today would be easy, but again, it's just fascinating.

None are my pictures!

This is one that I took this spring. I hadn't spotted the creature till it moved. Then it sat still till I got a pic.

Not mine, but I thought it was challenging to find at least two mountain goats:

Jasdip, the two I found are toward the bottom, resting. The text said at least two, so there might be others:

They are so tiny. The size of the rocks is deceiving. I had a hard time seeing most of the critters. I'm not very good at this.

I need new glasses. I can't see the mountain goats even with them circled. :-(

I can't, either, Fun2BHere, and the glasses I use for the PC monitor are only a few months old. Sometimes I wonder if some of these pictures are 90% (or more) imagination. But then again, some are almost too easy. I do have fun looking for whatever, though, frustrating as it is sometimes.

The one on the right is facing to the left, looking away from us, and the tip of his tail extends outside of the circle. You can see him. The one on the left is there, but more difficult to see.
