Waltonpets Furtography Blog: Marvin

Senior Black Labrador Retriever Dog Picture

This sweet senior made a bit of a stir when he was up for adoption! It must have been that greying muzzle or those sad brown eyes, slightly clouded by cataracts. Either way, his photos got the attention of a couple of adopters and rescues before his hold was even over.

Marvin was a senior Black Labrador Retriever that came into the animal shelter as a stray on August 18, 2019. He had no collar or microchip to find his owner. Being an older boy, he simply laid around in his kennel, not paying to much attention to visitors. But outdoors for his photo session, you could tell he was in his element. The age seemed to drop off and he was a perky young Lab again... especially on the banks of the pond. Perhaps he was recalling the good-ol'-days when he used to swim and retrieve with his owner's family. 

Marvin was rescued on August 23, 2019 by SOS Lab Rescue! His freedom ride was sponsored by pledges to the rescue from Jason, Racheal and Anne.

"Girl" was surrendered to the animal shelter on August 8, 2019. The person bringing her in said she belonged to a friend that was in jail in another county. But later that day, the owner called about claiming her and said she'd be there that day. Over the course of the next week, Girl waited in her kennel, and the shelter called her owner a few more times, but she was never claimed. She found a new home on August 19, 2019!

Ratsnake devouring a Mockingbird hanging in a tree Picture
An Eastern Ratsnake, Pantherophis alleghaniensis, hanging in a tree coiled around and eating a Northern Mockingbird. Walton County, Georgia. Eastern ratsnake, is a nonvenomous colubrid species endemic to North America. It is a constrictor and excellent climber and eats birds and birds eggs.
I took my typical morning walk behind the animal control shelter to change the SD card in my game camera. Up along the firing range berm, I spotted a writhing black ball and a bird wing in a tree. Holding up my specs, I couldn’t believe my eyes. About 30 feet up in the air, a Ratsnake was simultaneously dangling from a limb and struggling to swallow a Northern Mockingbird. I ran back to my office for my camera. Returning in about 5 minutes, it was still going at it. I watched for about 20 minutes until they fell into the undergrowth and I couldn’t see it anymore.

Copperhead Pit Viper with open mouth to strike showing fangs and glottis Picture
Copperhead Pit Viper with open mouth to strike showing fangs and glottis. Agkistrodon contortrix, is a species of venomous snake, a pit viper, in Eastern North America. Heat-sensing pit organ located between the eye and the nostril on both sides of the head. Bite symptoms include extreme pain, tingling, throbbing, swelling, and severe nausea.
​This beauty was picked up on an animal control call in Walton County, Georgia. A woman opened the door to a utility shed and found it curled up right in the entrance. The copperhead was pretty thick along the back end, so I’m thinking she may be a gravid female. I was doing a quick photo session before releasing it and this feisty viper kept striking at my camera. So I got some nice video footage of her strike.

I remember seeing this partially piebald White-tailed Deer last year as a fawn not long after it was born. At that time (and still may), it walked with a limp. I'm not sure if this is would be considered a piebald deer due to a genetic anomaly, or if this was from some sort of injury or other cause.

Eight-point White-tailed Deer buck in Velvet; Clarke County, Georgia.
Eating lunch on a Sunday afternoon after church, I suddenly jumped up from the table. (My family is somewhat used to that.) Grabbing my camera, I snuck out back where there were two nice bucks still in velvet in the meadow behind my house.
