I loaded him up in the bucket, and took him a mile south to a large wooded area, next to a creek where there should be things to eat and maybe a mate.
From my driveway, if the fence kept him out of the yard, his only choice back into the street. I have no idea how he got to my driveway. It did not matter. I took him to a location where his odds of survival are much higher. |
It may have been a female looking for a place to lay eggs. It is that time of year.
