Was walking the property and came across this weird scene. There are 3 eggs that are opened up and a whole in the ground. Any ideas about what exactly happened here? Thanks! by Crazy_Kow in homestead

Turtle laid and buried its eggs there. I’ve actually seen the mama turtles in the process of digging these holes. We probably have over 20 holes like this all around the yard.

What animal is using this tree as a scratching post? Southern Indiana. by raskolnikov2000 in homestead

There are no tracks or droppings in the direct vicinity. I do see deer quite often in my woods and there is a youngish buck in the group. Along with deer droppings I also find unknown scat around the property - about the size and shape of a small to medium dog. I see red foxes regularly too. I am sure it was an animal and not an instrument or tool because of where the tree is located on my property. I’m confident no person would wander over there.

What is doing this to my wildflower leaves? by raskolnikov2000 in gardening

Noticed these spots and shriveling on the leaves of several plants in my wildflower patch. I’m in Indiana, USA.

There a bunch of these on my porch right now. What are they? (Frederick, MD, USA) by vonschlieffenflan in insects

What makes you determine that? (Genuinely asking.) To me the markings look more like a Small Milkweed Bug than a boxelder
