Lots of unique critters around here

Besides our own unique critters living on our ranch, we also stumble upon (or they onto us) all sorts of wildlife while living in these mountains.
We see probably way too many spiders, and rabbits, coyotes, many comical lizards, including some spiky horny toads. We like to watch the different species of birds, including majestic eagles and hawks soaring through our skies.

But after coming in from the barn last night I realized I had garnered a hitchhiker. A beautifully patterned moth. Here he is on my shirt. My kids thought I was wearing a fancy pin!(Click for larger view)
