I saw this chrysalis on the side of the house. I don't know if it belongs to a butterfly or moth.
I saw a skunk while driving the street. It is hard to say for sure if it was a stripped skunk. It was sprinkling and at night when I saw it.
This wolf spider was at the bottom of the stairs. He was brown and black and about the size of a coffee cup lid.
This small spider was right outside the door. It maybe a little bit bigger then a pencil eraser. It was mostly black, but had some reddish or orange on it's abdomen.
I saw a American Goldfinch fly up within 15 feet of me after I whistled two times.
I believe I saw one of these beetles outside on a drive way. When I got closer to examine it more, it got into a defensive position and even sounded like it grunted or made some kind of warning nose.

I saw four mallards on my walk around the Clinton River Park northern trail. The first two were a female and a male. They were feeding on something in the water. The next two I saw were a pair of males. They were also eating things from the water. These two however less afraid of me. They even water out of the water for a while and just sat on the trail.
I observed a mother robin stay on it's nest even when I walked directly under it. I believed it stayed because it knew a thunderstorm was coming and knew it was not the time to fly away & leave her eggs.
