Notes:

This little guy came to visit us while we were fishing yesterday. He was digging around underneath the sand plum thicket, and seemed to stop and rest when he got to a sunny spot. He allowed us to get within a few feet of him!

So cool! I've been wanting to find one of these for a long time, but no luck yet. How neat to get so close to one in the wild!
