Nature Report 8!
Hey and welcome to another edition of Nature Report!!!!
Blue jay! I wonder if it's the one that I rescued? I doubt it.
Some sign that I saw remembering the judge and commissioners of Harris County. I saw it near the trail that I ride on, there are alot of signs like this around there. I wonder why?
White Dove? I think this is a white dove.
Skink! That's what type of lizard this is. They can have brown or, blue tails. I don't think they come in any other kind of colors, I've only heard of brown and blue. The blue color (I just read) means that it is a juvenile. I think they are most commonly found in Florida, maybe only near the Gulf coast or, other coastal cities around the globe. They are mostly found in bathrooms. From what I've read they are not poisonous to humans or, any animal. I've heard that they are poisonous to cats but, I've read that this is a myth brought on because of it's blue tail making it look like it was poisonous. I'm not sure about any of this. I'd be careful.
Also, remember these? One of the people that works at the animal shelter is really into insects and bugs! I showed her these pictures and she knew exactly what they were!
And this is an garden orb weaver that likes to build their "beautiful webs" (as she puts it) at night and then put them back up in the morning, they are harmless.
Ok, that's it for another wonderful nature report! Until next time! later!
Totally cool nature walk! Loved the blue-tailed skink! Reminded me of the time I accidentally dyed my foot purple when a cup of easter-egg dye spilled on the floor. It was every bit as strange and colorful! :-)

Glad you figured out about the tail from the gecko, Joseph. That is one mystery solved. Good for you for holding the sign for your dad's store! I know that is hard work to be on your feet like that for a few hours but I know your dad appreciates your work!
