Found in a field i walk my dog. Then a few other fields. Didnt touch them.

i understand this looks really bad but hear me out

my male cat has been with me for about five years now and ever since i got him he has been an outside cat. no matter the time of day he would always be outside (even in winters) he only comes inside when he feels like it or didn’t catch any food while he is outside. while snuggling him i realized his breath was RANCID so as any pet parent does i pried his mouth open to take a peak and what i found left me in shock and confusion? what is this? why is his gum so eroded and irritated?

if anyone has any clue on what it could be please lmk!

What kind of caterpillar is this?

Found them on a lead that came from my plum tree. Plum tree currently under small attack from Japanese beetles but the only other two bugs I've seen on it so far are wasps, flies, ants, earwigs, and lady bugs. Kinda looks like it could be lady bug eggs? Thanks

I've seen a few of these fake woodpeckers on telephone poles, just wondered what the point of them is. Is it just for decoration?

Just went out to throw out some trash and saw this on the hood of my car.

It seemed like some kind of broken apart rock with paint in it.

I was able to clean it with just a bucket of water and a paper towel to wipe off the yellow gunk.

I've lived in this apartment for a little over two months now and never seen any other issues.

Didn't leave any dents that I can tell, but I already have a fairly hail dented hood.

I believe they are pain killers

May I know what this creature is?

Ad i got on YouTube. Am i missing something?
