I'm glad you decided you needed to rest. <br /><br />I nearly stepped on a feral pig while walking a nature path just behind an RV Park somewhere in Florida -- on our first trip. Scared me half to death... just the total surprise of it. We both turned away and ignored each other.<br /><br /><br /><br />InterestingSallie (FullTime-Life)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15442598857394838271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-267933877592148187.post-6142838708829054772016-09-22T20:05:12.554-04:002016-09-22T20:05:12.554-04:00Love the closeups!Love the closeups!Janicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10359355308140058671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-267933877592148187.post-32488855280287672522016-09-22T03:19:11.686-04:002016-09-22T03:19:11.686-04:00What an interesting adventure on your morning walk...What an interesting adventure on your morning walk!

I am glad the little cardinal made it through unscathed. Also enchanted by the pig sightings. We have black bears and moose and deer up here, not to mention coyotes, but most definitely we do not have wild pigs of any sort!
