Submit your critter pictures for an upcoming Sunday Critters. Please email them to:
They must be a picture you (or family/friend) took and are willing to have us publish them on this site. Do not send any images you found on the internet.
Use ‘Critters’ in the subject line. Include your screen name in the body of the email. Tell me the name of your critter so I can include it with your screen name. Let us know in the comments any other info you want to share!
NEEDED:
Anymouse sent me a picture of a pet that had passed on. He suggested that I do a theme of “Friends Past”. If you would like your pet to be included, please send a picture with their name and a little bit about them. Doesn’t matter if it’s been recent or decades ago; they all have a place in our hearts no matter the length of time they’ve been gone. Please include “Friends Past” either in the Subject line of the email or in the body of the email.
Thanks!
That mocking bird reminds me of one that lived in my back yard as a kid. Some house in the nearby neigborhood had an alarm that triggered and blasted for hours one day. That blaring sound must have stuck in the mocking bird’s head because it repeated that sound for years!
Somebody must have liked the moose and elk so much that they had them bronzed!
Grizzly Bear Paw Print my Aunt Katie!
Moose Obola footprint, more likely …
Thanks, Claudia!
Ok, a tarantula is not ‘beautiful’. 🙂
Ah, the Norwegian Blue!
Beautiful plumage!
Tim, HAHAHAHA!
DaveVA, creep factor agree. Astheticly, very beautiful!😊
That’s a brown phase black bear, by the way, prowling near Sailor Lake in the Tobacco Root mountains in MT. Shot taken by our eldest son. The griz track pic was taken on a trail in Yellowstone National Park, up near the N border. Shot again taken by our eldest. Thanks, Claudia!!
That grizzly bear must be a heavy smoker leaving all those cigarette butts behind. Smokey should get after him.
The Tobacco Root Mountains are in the area around Eureka, Mt. in the far NW corner of Mt. just south of the Canadian border. It is beautiful but very remote country up there.
Thanks Claudia..
As we rush to prove who holds the patent rights to insanity your Sunday Distractions are the necessary off ramp.
@ Geoff: These Tobacco Roots are another range in SC MT, running N – S, West of Norris and Ennis, E of Twin Bridges and Sheridan, MT. VERY pretty range and fairly accessible for backpackers, ATVs, horses and bicycles. Lots of old mine sites in there – and lakes with big trout. Reports say there’re griz too but I don’t know anyone who has seen one in there – yet. Griz now are pretty well everywhere in central and western MT. There are signs of them even in the Elkhorns, just ESE of Helena, and in the Belts to the N.
We usually carry when we’re out and about – spray and 10mms.

Great shots everyone and happy Sunday what’s left of it anyway!
Just got back from the ‘bunker’ in the lower remote and rustic ADK’s, not as quite remote though, @forcibly deranged, when compared to the NW corner of MT!
That said a couple of weeks back we had something cross the road in front of the driver in front of us and man was that thing low, large, sleek, and fast, the driver just missed it. Was either a bear or a young Bigfoot! It appeared to be across the road in two long strides.
@anymouse – great suggestion of the ‘passed pets’ post, was thinking the same.
Thanks C!
