Sometimes lurking in shallow sandy waters is the round sting ray.
Flat fish with eyes and nostrils visible from the top. Unfortunately for us the stingray’s defense mechanism is camouflage, so if accidentally stepped on, it will sting.
Stingrays have sharp, barbed stingers on their tails, and when used in defense, like being stepped on will pierce the skin.
This can cause puncture wounds injected with venom, tissue damage, pain, swelling, and occasionally secondary infection.If stung its best to soak in hot water parks.ca.gov explains why…..

*Sting Ray season is from June – August so remember to shuffle your feet beach goers☝️

The two faces of “possums.”
While both can be pronounced the same and can play dead, they are actually two different animals.
Possum and oppossum.
Both marsupials, but possums have a softer coat, a different appearance, and can be a little smaller in size.
Oppossums have long thick hairless tails, and possums a bushy tail.Did you know the popular sugar glider is a type of possum in Australia?
Possums are native to China, New Zealand, and Australia

The hedgehog, is a favorite in the UK, and to spot one of these prickly critters is exciting for sure!
They spend most of their time sleeping, but you can find them rummaging through the garden, parks and woodlands looking for food at night.
The British Hedgehog Preservation Society tells you how to hang with the hedgehogs….

This is the new addition to our outdoor terrarium. I love it!
Outdoor terrariums are so much fun!
But always make sure its kept up, so not to be a breeding ground for mosquitos.Mosquitos can transmit so many diseases that can be harmful to both you and your pet. The very well known zika virus that spread to people, and of course heartworm that can be transmitted to your pet.
Did you know there are over ten diseases that can be transmitted by mosquitos?
http://www.mosquito.org/page/diseasesFish are always a good idea in a terrarium, to keep mosquito larvae out of your pond. Along with a good filter to keep water clean and moving.
They are so easy to build, and when kept up so beautiful. I don’t remember a Summer without dragonflies.
