    Camping in Illinois (pic heavy)

    Went camping this weekend and thought I'd share some of the wildlife with you guys. The picture if the vines doesn't have any animals in it I just that it was really cool to see mother nature doing her own thing. And the one with the water, if you look closely there's some red masses in it. It's in a small pond so I thought maybe frog eggs?

    Yeah, those vines doing a "candy-cane" thing are really cool! Lots of nice finds there. Thanks for sharing!

    Wow, coming across that Fawn was extra special.

    I’ve spent a sizable chunk of my free time in the woods in my lifetime and have never seen a Fawn bed down. I’ve only seen them up and about with their mother. I bet Mom was near by watching.
    The one thing I found that you can count on about Balls is that they are consistent about their inconsistentcy.

    Oh I'm sure she was but I didn't stay long to fine out because I didn't want to stress out the fawn or the mom. The picture is deceiving tho, I was nowhere near that close to it. My phone just has a really good zoom on it! Never the less it was an awesome find.

    Nice photos! I love the one with the vines around the tree . . and of course the ratsnake pretending to be a branch was pretty cool too!
