other dog Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Good news is getting scarce nowadays- very depressing. So i'll post a few pictures that I took this week and last week.Actually, I got lots of pictures- i'll start with the wildlife.This is "Other Dog", the beagle at work.The neighborhood dog helping himAn ant (it was a slow day that day)Saw this snail crawling up the inside of an I-beam when I was unloading in Cedar Bluff, Va. yesterday morning. It was about 5 feet off the ground, must have taken him days to climb that high!I see lots of these aroundI saw some goats playing in Cedar Bluff tooYou can see the reflection of a Peterbilt in this car's window!...enough of that nonsense, eh? I got some truck pictures too-A Peterbilt in Cedar Bluff, Va. Looks like the one reflected in the car window.Beautiful place, that Cedar Bluff. It's out there between Bluefield and Bristol.Saw a Loadstar dump truck there tooAnd a full moon over the mountainA Case tractor in Canvas, W.V.And an Oshkosh in Newcomerstown, Ohio.Hope you enjoyed the photos, have a nice day!

rhasler Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I see lots of these around. Always have to set them straight though, I'd just hate to see the critters starve to death. Quote "Mebbe I'm too ugly and stupid to give up!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
other dog Posted August 13, 2011 Author Share Posted August 13, 2011 I call those creatures jar flys. I think they're the same thing as a cicada. They come out of these holes that are all over the back yard, bust out of these shells, then get in the trees and make lots of noise. I always wear the aluminum collander on my head when I go out side to protect my brain.This one looks really happy. Quote Producer of poorly photo-chopped pictures since 1999.

Rob Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Yes they are cicadas. They age in the ground for seven years before emerging and breaking out of their shell. They then dry out, and take flight.Make a bunch of noise during their mating calls too.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.

Rob Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 The cicada is happy cause his mating call was answered. The wiring is a fine job I might add. The toad, I'm making the broad assumption that just after the photo was snapped, he was on the grille.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
