This is my favorite picture that I took while on my month long adventure. It was taken just as we entered the Trinity River to go fishing in Grey Falls. There are spectacular little hikes that take you down to the water. While passing through I got a glimpse of a small green tree frog hanging under a branch. I grabbed my camera and quickly turned it on only to see the frog leap just out of sight. Defeated, I looked around hoping to catch another glimpse for posterity and saw the above image out of the corner of my eye. Thinking to myself that I would not make the same mistake again I was determined to outsmart the creature and record my victory this time.
My approach was slow, I had already lost my first prey, I held my breath and became excited to see that the thing hadn't seen me yet and my stealthy behavior was working. "I am a ninja", I thought. It wasn't until I had gotten three pictures in and realized that the creature wasn't moving at all, so I decided to get a closer look. I made more noise and moved in. It was motionless. This is when I discovered that I had successfully stalked and filmed a piece of poo.
I think it's a dog's.
I'm an idiot. At least now I have photographic proof.
