We went to the San Angelo State Park wildlife viewing area this morning to feed the birds and we surprised this Nine-banded Armadillo romping in and around the little pond. I believe it is an adult pregnant female. Enjoy the photo and click on the image for an enlargement.

Bob,
I have seen Armadillos in Florida before. They were fairly small. But the one in your picture looks alot bigger.

I would estimate that the body alone on this one to be 24-30 inches in length. Actually, I think it is the largest that I have come across.
Bob
Great shot!
Thanks again. I love your work, too, and have added your blog to my blogroll. Bob Zeller
