Toads are common but can be hard to see since they are the color of the forest floor. They come in sizes ranging from about a cm. to about 10 cm. This one is one of the larger ones I've seen. |
Eastern box turtles like this one are very shy. |
This caterpillar probably was hoping to find a branch as it reached out. |
These tired dogs are not native. They are my daughter's dogs which Nick was watching while she was on vacation. |
I don't know what this is the larvae of but the false eye spots are incredible. |
Don't eat this one. |
Many of the surface rocks are covered with lichen. |
These bracket fungi growing on a cut oak log are faintly bioluminescent. I could not get a photo of their nocturnal light with the equipment I have so you'll have to take my word on it. |
The mushrooms are primarily a springtime phenomenon when it is wet enough. |
Some of the locals collect and eat the wild mushrooms. |
