Herons can also have some amusing moments:

https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/33381010 (I love it when they extend their necks like this)

Also Crows:

And one of my favorite personal experiences I had with a Western Painted Turtle:

Enjoyed watching this Mouse run along the branches of a winter tree: https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/103095754

Whether it’s sleeping in our yard (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/95855792) or scratching/contorting in the middle of the road (https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/92291691), this Red Fox is a city dweller for sure

In looking for fun observations, just realized we used a photo of a Moose urinating (didn’t notice until now): https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/53420904

This is the most hearts we’ve used on a post ever!
