This creature was extremely inquisitive. While I was watching him he found a cat whisker and ate it. There are more pictures of him on the blog. http://halfheardinthestillness.com/?p=91... He was actually found in Columbus, Ohio but the location settings for this form aren't working smoothly on my phone!
