I flipped over a sheet of wood and found dozens of crickets.

They’re crawling around all over the yard.

Found this fella under a pile of wood.

Pest control doing their thing.

I saw two today but decided to use an old picture for a reference.

Saw a few of these this morning seemingly upset about the empty feeder.

Yes, I forgot to flip it when I drew it.

Easily my #2 favorite spider. Little tiny homies keeping the tiny flies in check. Unfortunately, not friendly which means you can’t really handle them. Jumping spiders though, I love when I find them.

I often see a pair of Abert’s Towhees running along the top of the block walls that surround my yard. Sometime I find them thrashing through the mulch looking for snacks.
