Comings and Goings In The Yard

 There are lots of creatures great and small that come through or live in our yard.  Somedays I see lots and sometimes not hardly any at all.  On these two days, I found one and one about ran over me at the bus stop.

I was cleaning out the last of the squash plants and saw this and thought it was a piece of corn that had started to mold.

On closer examination I thought might be some type of bug.  Was it good to have in the garden or not to that was the question?   From what Google Lens tells me it might be a dry-Mexican bean beetle.  If this is the case it is bad news.  Doing research to see what I need to do  Mike Meadows what do you think?  You are my go-to gardening guy.

Then Adi and I were at the bus stop waiting for Ava and Jon Milligan was picking up Louie when I hear a voice...Jan...it took me a second and then I saw this big buck.  Others have seen him in the neighborhood.  He ran right across the yard in front of us and into the woods.  Beautiful.  I couldn't get my hands and camera to cooperate so this is the shot I got.  Maybe I should be taking my big girl camera to the bus stop.
