In the company of critters

I also have a fair number of critters keeping me company.

Breeding pair of American Kestrels.

Moth getting her daily salt from my knee

Toad waiting for ants to come up the crack.
I had to pull a few of these out of the sump pit as it was being dug.

Dragon fly taking a break on a sheet of insulation.

I also have a bunch of prairie skinks, but I haven't managed to get a pic yet:

There are also lots of various herons, a Bald Eagle that flies over many days, and I've seen a coyote as well.
