I pulled back a tarp and found these fellers taking a nap... thought about the best way to set my pocketknife down near for the picture... ::paranoid:: then I thought about how I hate emergency rooms.... ::facepalm:: .... ::hmm:: So, I decided on a bit of a "safe-space" so to speak.... ::skeptic::

I've heard that they make good pets if you cut off their tails........right behind their ears. But they are kinda pretty.

T-dog, I have to admit I am not a fan of reptiles, especially those of the venomous kind. I admire your equanimity when confronting these creatures.

My pictures are never as good as you guys this is the first attempt at knives in the wild.
Glenbad rehandled this old Shapleigh for me so it has been posted in a couple of places. I think the flowers are called blue bells. I dug up ferns from my dad's sisters place before we sold it and the Flowers came along for the ride.
The old wood latter was my first father in-law that stayed with me I used to climb it when painting not sure how old that puppy it either.
Enjoy.
Do you think I'm Pleased, Absolutely.

Which venomous little snakes are those. I think that may have made me wet my pants and then I would have went crying to the house.

Looks to me like you did very well with your first attempt at entering the "Knives in the wild thread"! ::tu::
Great explanation concerning the objects in the pictures.

Thanks, Q.S. ::handshake:: ... I'm a hunter, and a nature lover at the same time, as I suspect 99.8% of all hunters are, ::hmm:: and I like to leave most of God's creatures alone, if they leave me alone... ::paranoid::

Brought a late model Imperial Camp knife with a Florida Christmas Tree lanyard, an Imperial soddy and a Mora out on a hike with my boys. We got pretty close to two deer and spooked up a handful of turkeys. Snacked upon some fine local sausage. Good day all around ::tu::
