I really enjoy hiking. When we were on vacation at the beginning of the month we had a lovely hike to see the cabin that my in laws honeymooned in. (There was rain, hail, thunder, lightening, and mostly making our own trail, but it was awesome.) I love to take pictures while we hike. (Which is a bit more dangerous when there isn’t much of a path and you aren’t the one who knows where you’re going) As I was taking photos on this hike, I started to notice a little creature appearing in my shots.
With the first photo, I thought what a cool little creature. This must be his home.
When he appeared in another photo, I wondered how in heavens he was moving so quickly.
I couldn’t believe how fast the little guy was moving. Poor thing, the mosquitoes were biting him.
He seemed to be quite happy to pose for some close ups.
When we stopped to eat lunch, this little guy had some how gotten into my back pack. I took him out and set him on a nice mossy area and took one last photo, or so I thought.
That little guy was back in my back pack when we loaded up the truck at the end of the hike. I placed him carefully back in the woods a bit. I have to tell you that I was completely surprised when we got back to the house and that little monster was in my back pack again. After putting him outside several times, I decided I may as well let him stay. I couldn’t get him to leave anyway.
That may have been a mistake. Pretty soon there were little guys all over the house. I gathered some of them up to get a quick photo. I could not get them to leave. I had to give in. My in laws didn’t want them all over the house, so I brought them home with me.
I live a bit over 900 miles away from my in laws, and the slerks keep showing up at my house. I have got to find some people or monsters who would like these little guys as pets. They are rapidly taking over my home.
hehehehe. Lovely story Shana & lovely woodland shots (including the Slerk)..lol. xx
Thank you so much Lisa!
Creative! Looking forward to reading and viewing more.
