While doing a Climate Watch bird survey this week for National Audubon Society (looking for the Lesser Goldfinch) I got surprised by this adorable Nine-banded Armadillo trotting across the road! Such a treat to see it wandering across a bridge.
Ooo its so cute!
Aww what a cutie 🥺
Did you pet it?
I wish. I watched it cross the bridge. It stood up on its hind legs a few times and then disappeared into the trees. So glad to see one that wasn’t road kill!
So cool!
