I had a little friend follow me around this lake this morning as I was out for my morning walk.
He would not get to close though as he kept his distance. When I would stop he would stop and turn the other way. It was kind of funny after awhile as it seemed to be a game.
Remember in life,do not walk to fast,you might miss something!
Here is a photo of my new friend.
I am searching for a name for him.

Morning Grizzy, you made my day with that post on the mummified hummingbird in the house. We do not have lampshades only ceiling fans with lights,maybe he would sit on top of the ceiling fan and go for a ride to try to get away from the dog 
Ahhh, Old Highway you say for those cross rocks, you are a very good student !! |
