From the shore, it looked like the Steller Sea Lion was furiously shaking a large fish. Photos show it was a Giant Pacific Octopus!

LIFER!
Was trying to look for a spot that they can be commonly seen at. Well, I didn't find the spot, but I still found one! Such a super cool species to see!

AOR. No idea how it got there. Obviously not native to this area. Appeared healthy and behaved normally.

Observation for the anuran.
We watched the egret for a few minutes. The egret was trying really hard to swallow the toad. A car behind us pulled ahead of us and stopped next to the egret, causing the egret to fly off with the toad, so I'm not sure if it successfully swallowed it in the end.
Observation for the bird:

This was in Bone Draw in Big Bend National Park. There were American snouts and another species I see here but haven't identified. The butterflies flowed along with us as we hiked, like a yellow river.

This cat entered my camp in site 1 at the Grass Shack. It was an almost 15 minute encounter. Weirdly I once posted a thread in the forum about seeing a cougar and not being able to get a picture. I got more than I bargained for for sure. I definitely made the NPS Rangers morning very exciting and gave them five minutes of hair-raising video.

Photo 1:
This Was Unexpected
Right in the middle of a patch of white Queen Anne's lace, was a red one. I have never seen anything like it. It was not a separate plant. The same plant had bloom stalks branching off the main stem. All of them were white except for this one red one that was growing out of the same plant as the white ones.
Photo 2:
Red Queen Anne's Lace
Took a close up of the beauty of this beautiful flower. I did some research & there are hybrid versions of Queen Anne's lace that are sold as seeds for flower beds called "Dara". But those are all a certain color, not an all white plant with one red bloom. So this appears to be a natural mutation.

We saw this albino snake on and off for years around our house until my dad accidentally hit it with the lawnmower one day. An escaped pet probably?
