  1. Hey, we have some of these same things here in Indiana! Specifically mosquitos, dead possums, and birds I can't identify. :)

  2. You have the start of a bestiary ... the mystery is all.
    Me, I'm a lister so I have all these books around so I can go look up the latest creature, even such as creep through the innerburbs of Greensboro.
