Man!! That is one BODACIOUS caterpiggle. Remind me not to mess with CvilleE...
I figured someone would certainly get this one after it was brought up on A earlier what is it.
A turtle/terrapin's eye.
Going back to the garden spider, when I was a kid we had one make a perfect web outisde our kitchen window (the one over the sink with a flourescent light above it - attracted plenty of bugs to keep it fed). It was so damn cool to watch that thing every day up close yet behind glass. We watched it catch wrap and eat bugs, make an egg sack, then pretty much get eaten by the babies (didn't see it happen, but could tell that's what happened).

Thanks for taking the time to help me figure out what this thing was....My kids had played with it when we found it, and showing them this picture over the weekend was very kool.....

I feel the same way about ours. It gets to the point that you hate to see the inevitable happen. That's life though.

This one is A little harder so the hint for the day is this: Most, but not all, migrate to the Okefenokee swamp every winter. (migrate is A key word here.)
If A feather came my way. What to do? Run away. If I run can I fly? Today I can, I've learned to try. For my food, what can be said? I like it raw, I like it dead.

I figured this hint would give it away. This buzzard hatch-ling was in A barn on some of my hunting land. Small but potent comes to mind. At the time this photo was taken I had no idea that A buzzards self defense mechanism is to regurgitate carrion. After that incident I was careful to give these birds A wide personal space.

This one was beside my garden this year. Almost walked right into it.

Incorrect.

Incorrect on the guess. Good try though.
Your welcome. It was fun to research.

(migrate is A key word here.)
Incorrect, but A good guess.
Soon. This one's really cool. The next clue?
Road kill.
This should make it easy.

Incorrect, but I can see where you got your idea from. This one is misleading.
Incorrect. Again this photo is intentionally misleading.
