GoldFeatherPhoto > Beaver (BRCES, Purcellville, VA)

I was photographing some Hairy Woodpeckers in the trees that border this pond when this beaver slapped his tail on the water right behind where I had set-up my tripod -- it sounded just like a gunshot and to say it startled me would be a mild understatement.

GoldFeatherPhoto > Coyote (Lake Hodges, Rancho Bernardo, CA)

I had partially concealed myself in some bushes at the side of a trail to wait for a Black Phoebe to return to its perch when this coyote came trotting down the trail I had used. I'm not sure which of us was more startled by the other -- we both noticed each other when he was about 15 feet away.

GoldFeatherPhoto > Groundhog (Purcellville, VA) -- Other possible captions: Treehog, Tree-hugger, World's Largest Squirrel)

I was camped out under the canopy of this cherry tree in full bloom waiting for the birds to return when I caught movement out the side of my eye -- this tree-hugger was about one foot above my head!
