Thought I would share a few pics I have had stashed away for awhile.

A small portion of my backyard. I like the red in the sea of yellow.

I have only ever seen 2 or 3 of the little shrubs that this flower is on & they are all in one place. The flower smells a little like pepper.

The creek down in the woods behind my house.

Well thats it, tell me what you think.:)
 
...so confuzzled...
I was o.k. starting in the backyard (I Thought based on your profile info in SC) then the next pic I saw the face and though "raccoon" but when photo fully loaded I said "Not raccoon, coatimundi...but in SC? then next to Hawaii...
What is up with the coatimundis? Were you visiting an animal rescue or zoo? I didn't think they were really a species kept widely as pets in the US and I'm pretty sure those are not photos from the depths of the wild South American rain forest :)
 
The coatis arn't all that common in the pet trade, but those are in fact pets. A little bit tempermental at times & they have the tendancy to run across counters & knock everything flying, but they are great.
 
Man, they sound like a handful. For some reason the name Schroeder has me now thinking about a coatimundi in a box...is it alive, dead, or simultaneously both? Schroedinger's Coatimundi Paradox!
 
Nice pictures. And I know that shrub! That's Calycanthus floridus, known as Sweetshrub or Carolina allspice.
