@breelandwalker Yeah, unfortunately I’m hyper aware of the economic consequences of my gender; but I did ask my dad before I went in, had a general idea of what it was, what needed doing, and had been down there and did know what it looked like (just didn’t know the names for it). I asked my parents if I was going to have to strong arm them, but they’re a direct toyota dealership that we’ve been going to for a long time and they’re always nice whether it’s my dad or my mom who goes in, so……..

I did get sassy with them though when they suggested they were going to zip tie it back in place and told them they were going to use the proper damn clips lol.

That eevee that I was literally running full speed across the yard trying to find yesterday? Caught one while parked in the Walmart parking lot lol. I panicked because all the sudden I was out of balls, but I did have Google play money, and somehow that eevee waited patiently through the whole process. I’ve had pidgeys who have resisted capture. This eevee was just like “cool take me home and live out your childhood dreams of owning a fantasized version of a fox”

I found three owl pellets outside

Just chilling, looking for good deadfall and turning over flat rocks looking for small snakes and stuff, and I found three of them around the same spot. I only recognized them because one of them had a lining of bones on the outside. I was super excited to find one- then two more almost right beside it were fantastic! So of course I baggied them, brought them inside, washed hands, did research, contacted some vulture culture acquaintances….one of which brought up the larva thing.

So I picked up the baggie. It was crawling with them. Crawling.

My problem is this….I can’t unbaggie it to put it in the oven to bake them, and I’m afraid to put them in my mother’s freezer, even quadruple baggied, and I’m afraid if I leave it outdoors to soak, I’ll still be dealing with bugs when I haul everything up out of the water.

Nnnhhh…I used to be cool with bugs barring mosquitoes and fire ants (fire ants are hell), but since I moved to Ohio and have experienced all sorts of ridiculous and indiscriminate attacks from insects large, small, venomous, pincered, and in swarms, I HATE THEM NOW. IF I WERE A WINGED BIRD I WOULD FEAST UPON YOUR UNHOLY FLESH, YE SINNERS
