Arm-a-Who ???

Dear Fellow Blog Followers,


As I have been driving around getting groceries, etc., I have actually passed three of these on the street.  Dead of course...  That's right - Armadillos!!!


Armadillo is a spanish word for "little armored one".  The Armadillo is the Texas state small mammal and it is observed on ground hog day the same way a ground hog is observed seeing its shadow.  The official Armadillo in Austin, Texas is called Bee Cave Bob.


Check it out!  Note the nine "bands" on his armored back (the lines of armor).  The "nine banded Armadillo" is native to Texas.  If you "click" or "double click" on the photo, it will enlarge and you will be able to see it better.  Use the "back button" to go back to posting/story.


Armed and Ready !!!

R.I.P. !!!


After seeing the Armadillo's on the road, we were fortunate to have a "baby" visitor on our front lawn.


Meet baby "Armando" the Armadillo !!!

Baby "Armando"... Watch Out For Cars !!!


Armadillo - ArMyGosh !!!
