Black Caterpillar Hunter Beetle (Calosoma sayi)
6 August 2019
Avondale Park
Denton, Denton County, Texas
Observed this Black Caterpillar Hunter Beetle spend more than an hour's time eating another beetle, a large golden-brown May/June Beetle. Ants did not begin scavenging the remaining carcass of the May/June Beetle until this beetle was done having its meal. Had not previously observed one beetle eating another. The Black Caterpillar Hunter Beetle is large, over an inch in length. Its black sheen dorsally was symmetrically lined with pink/red spots. Our first time observing this beetle in the North Texas region.

(Puget Sound Garter Snake?)
The story of this encounter is available on my Facebook page:
https://www.facebook.com/pg/CrazyAboutNature/photos/?tab=album&album_id=2942878802417181&tn=-UC-R
Caught a baby garter snake, under 6" in length, consuming a just-emerged Northern Pacific Tree Frog. The frog was not as wide as my small fingernail, and not as long as my trimmed thumbnail.
It was heart-wrenching for me to watch this... as a amphibian, and especially a frog lover, but it is nature.

A great time with @psyllidhipster resulting in a bunch of Sphinx Moths on our sheet. There were actually even more than this but these are the ones that grouped together. 5 species: Carolina Sphinx (Manduca sexta), Five-spotted Hawk Moth (Manduca quinquemaculata), Manduca florestan, Typhon Sphinx Moth (Eumorpha typhon), White-lined Sphinx Moth (Hyles lineata).
Individual observations will be made for each species.

Sorry for the low-quality pictures of the carcass. Was found in a field right next to the road. Likely roadkill. It looked like the body had been there for a while. I collected the skull, took it home and cleaned it. The last two pictures are of the cleaned skull.

I managed just a few quick shots from the car as an Osprey flew by with a fish over the Pedernales River in Johnson City, Texas. This was the only shot of the 4 or 5 that was in decent focus. This fish has been identified as:
American Gizzard Shad (Dorosoma cepedianum)

Mojave Rattlesnake
Crotalus scutulatus
This snake was captured in Graham Co., Arizona
Photo taken Pima Co., Arizona
11 March 2009
CAPTIVE ANIMAL
This snake is unusual in that it lacks black and
white bands at the base of tail.
I was out with several friends, one of them a retired USFW enforcement officer. He had this Mojave Rattlesnake which had been captured the previous fall in Graham Co., AZ, but I do not know the exact location. Anyway, we took some images of this captive snake and I thought I'd post them here just as reference material.
