I'm sure your back yard is just as interesting as mine (we both live in the same area), you just need to pay more attention

Those are serious backyards! I only have boring European lizards and even for those, you'll have to wait until our late spring

Forgot, the neighbor's cat sometimes visits

We did see a cat in our driveway last night which the Brat insisted was an AWC, until it started miaoowing (?) very sweetly!

This is a Lacewing larva, some species carry the remains of their prey on their backs as a disguise to avoid predators.
A Bush Mosquito male. Male mosquitoes feed on nectar, the female needs blood to complete reproduction.
A tiny Long-Legged Fly, these jewels are less than 10mm long.
This unidentified wasp is one of the many species I see in my garden.
