rowlands_courtney_3Description
I saw these raccoons eating our dog food I front of our house. There were about five of them. I am not too sure on the exact species, but I think they are the northern raccoon. They weren't too shy, but still were kinda skittish around noises (such as the door opening and closing).

Rodents (Order Rodentia)Observer
rowlands_courtney_3Description
Out in the back of my school, there is a field. I was walking around out there, looking for exciting organisms, when I lifted up a tire and found this. It looks to me like this is a mouse nest. There were many other signs of mice and rats in that field from the holes I saw in the ground. I even saw some grass move quickly as if something was crawling away, but it was too fast for me to catch it.

Downy Leather-winged Beetle (Podabrus pruinosus)Observer
rowlands_courtney_3Description
There are some bushes on the edge of my school where a fence lays. I was walking past these bushes and I found a small beetle crawling around on the leaves. I had seen this beetle before, but never knew what it was. I looked it up and I think it is a solider beetle.
