Armadillos

....I grabbed this pic on the property behind my mom's previous home.  Armadillos are in high numbers in Georgia and tend to dig holes in flower beds and yards looking for grubs, worms, and moles at night.  They have very poor eye site but an excellent sense of smell.  While in college in TN back in '98, I mentioned to a friend that I was sure I saw a dead armadillo on the roadside...he quickly informed me that TN didn't have armadillos..however, the grey armor was all too familiar to me....a few yrs ago, I see a story and pic in a middle TN town showing an armadillo walking out of a guy's garage....these pesky hole diggers are definitely in TN now and growing in numbers.....
