Wildlife in my Backyard

In the last week I have seen the following things in my backyard:
Ants, lots and lots of ants.

A wasp

Lacewing Flies (These are one of my favorite bugs)

Scorpions, of course

A carpenter bee

A lizard

A ground snake (see previous post)

A kitten (which made its way into our house and attacked my sister-in-law and I when we tried to pick it up to take it outside)

And a Vulture

We see most of these on a regular basis, but I haven't seen a snake or a vulture around here before, so that was pretty cool. There are also a bazillion doves and pigeons and crows that like to sing 24 hours a day, which is kind of obnoxious at 1 in the morning but it's fun to wake up to. :)
