Sorry about the quality of some of these, I decided to take them at that weird time of day when the light changes :p Also, I couldn't use Imgur to upload, then when I started to post I realized that the pictures weren't showing up. You'll have to open them in a new tab. I tried a lot of things to fix it, but nothing worked. So if anyone knows how to fix this, please tell me! Anyway, I will probably be adding more as I go along if that's okay. Just thought I would get the first few submitted. For the purple flowers and prickly plant I had to go down my street and take pics, then remembered I had to have my name in it. So I went back and got it, but it had gotten a little darker by the time I was able to take more, which is why there are two images for each. Thanks!
1. Find an animal swimming in the water.
2. Find a baby animal.
3. Find a piece of trash and throw it away.
4. Find something shaped like a heart.
5. Find a location of a bird's nest. (Please don't disturb the birds!) :)
6. Find some running water (things like a stream, waterfall, river, creek etc)
7. Find something edible.
Little baby apples ^.^
8. Find something prickly.
Bad lighting but has my name in it:
Better lighting, no name:
9. Find something green that isn't a plant or tree.
10. Find an orange flower.
Not sure if this counts as orange, but closest I could find for now.
11. Find a yellow flower.
12. Find a purple flower.
Bad lighting with my name:
No name, better lighting:
13. Find a butterfly.
14. Find a hole made by an animal.
I know this is really dark, I will probably take another tomorrow if I have the chance.
15. Find something with scales.
16. Find a red leaf.
You might not be able to see it very well, just above my name...
So here is an up-close one:
17. Find a plant that is budding.
18. Find a tree seedling.
19. Find something with fur.
My cat, Rose, had to take about two hundred pictures just to get a good one :p
20. Find something that can swim.

I guess that is ok...as long as you aren't harming any living animal.

I participated last year and didn't get the title. Not sure why, all pics followed the rules to the letter. Anyway, I'm wondering if I'd be allowed to use last year's pictures for some of these items (not that I could since I deleted them all the other day XD). I doubt I could but it wasn't addressed in the rules. Anyway, I'll try to update this as possible. I have all of my pics except the butterfly (they all got eaten or something idk :p). If possible I'll list the butterfly as well if I get it.
1. Find an animal swimming in the water.
2. Find a baby animal. (I circled it so you can find it easier. Eggs technically are baby animals, right? They are a fetus and since the baby bunnies were hiding, this was the best I could get.)
3. Find a piece of trash and throw it away.
4. Find something shaped like a heart.
5. Find a location of a bird's nest. (Please don't disturb the birds!) :)
6. Find some running water (things like a stream, waterfall, river, creek etc)
7. Find something edible. Wild carrots and clover
8. Find something prickly.
9. Find something green that isn't a plant or tree. tarp
10. Find an orange flower.
11. Find a yellow flower.
12. Find a purple flower.
13. Find a butterfly.I had to go all the way from Missouri to Montana to find a butterfly and this is still the best I got! (I was in Montana for other reasons though of course ;p)
14. Find a hole made by an animal.
And the proof (I see them there all the time):
15. Find something with scales. I did not kill this armadillo. It had apparently been dead for a long time, phew!
16. Find a red leaf.
17. Find a plant that is budding.
18. Find a tree seedling.
19. Find something with fur.
20. Find something that can swim.

I know where I can find more of the things on the list, so I'll be updating this post when I get the chance.
1. Find an animal swimming in the water. (Kinda hard to see, but that little orange blob above my username is a baby koi fish.)
2. Find a baby animal. (Does the pic above count? Because other than that there aren't any baby animals quite yet. The birds usually hatch mid June here.)
3. Find a piece of trash and throw it away.
4. Find something shaped like a heart. (What's better than somthing shaped like a heart? Something shaped like three hearts!)
5. Find the location of a birds nest. (The nest is hard to make out but I was actually lucky enough to witness the mourning doves who live there building it. Maybe I'll post a pic of them next time they show up in my yard.)
6. Find some running water.
7. Find something edible. (There are blackberry bushes in my neighbourhood but they don't ripen until early summer.)
8. find something prickly. (A dead razz berry branch. The definition of prickly.)
9. Find something green that isn't a plant or tree. (Looks more green in real life...)
10. Find an orange flower.
11. Find a yellow flower. (An invader from my neighbors yard, I have no Idea what kind of flower this is.)
12. Find a purple flower.
13. Find a butterfly. (It's too early for butterflies here...)
14. Find a hole made by an animal. (Not currently occupied, good thing too since its a skunk. He'll be back in the summer though.)
15. Find something with scales. (The only reptiles in this part of canada are rattlesnakes but lucky for me, I have a koi pond in my backyard. These are the ones we haven't moved back into the main pond yet.)
16. Find a red leaf.
17. Find a plant that is budding. (Teeny tiny lilac buds!)
18. Find a tree seedling. (Little pine tree picked a bad spot to grow.)
19. Find something with fur. (Pupper didn't want to sit still.)
20. Find something that can swim. (Do the fish still count? If no I'll try to track down some geese.)

Arizona is hard mode for this @-@ Some fo things just...aren't really found here. Also its 100 degrees outside so not really easy to search for them either @-@
Enjoy the santa sticky note in some of the pics rofl. I needed paper and that was all mom had readily available xD
1. Find an animal swimming in the water.
My dog Katrina going for a swim in their little kiddie pool.Here's another pic of her in the pool. I couldn't decide if either one was obvious enough that she was actually in the pool lol.
2. Find a baby animal.
They swam away too fast lol. Its a pack of (albeit older) baby ducks. Mom's had them at work (wildlife rescue and rehab) and we went out to this lake to release them back to the wild. It took me a second to get my camera out because i couldn't tip the crate and hold my phone at the same time lol.
(side note, don't you love that disgusting blue water? Totally natural, obviously.)
3. Find a piece of trash and throw it away.
Piece of clear plastic in the grass.
4. Find something shaped like a heart.
5. Find a location of a bird's nest. (Please don't disturb the birds!) :)
So this nest has a bit of a story behind it. While we were releasing the ducks pictured in #2, mom got a call from work saying a company near where we were at the time had been trimming trees when they found a hawk's nest in the dead tree they were trimming. Mom and i went to go assess it and see how old the babies were and decide from there if we needed to make the hawks a new nest out of a basket in another tree so this other tree could be taken down(it was dead and its almost storm season, so it was posing a risk to cars parked along the street). When we got there, we found the baby hawks sitting outside the nest, and while they weren't flying yet mom determined they would be in less than a week. The landscapers were completely all for leaving the nest alone, and we all decided the best thing to do would leave the tree for now and let the babies fledge. Since the tree had already been disturbed before the nest was discovered, once the babies were flying they would likely move to a much more practical location anyway. The branches that posed a safety risk had already been removed as well, so no danger to humans either. So in the end, no, the nest was not disturbed, and the hawks were able to continue living there until their babies were old enough to leave.
(If we had ended up needing to move them, we would've made them a new nest out of a basket and put that basket on a better tree for them within the general area. Thankfully, the decision we ended up with worked just as well for human and bird alike.)
Also, sorry for blurry pic. You can kind of tll in the pic that the sun was directly above me, and so i couldn't really see well at all. I thought i took a second, better pic of the nest itself without my username so you could see it better, but apparently my finger missed the camera button and it was too bright to see my phone screen :(
6. Find some running water (things like a stream, waterfall, river, creek etc)
Yeah, thank goodness for a broken sprinkler. Honestly, this one wouldn't have happened for em if it weren't for this broken sprinkler at the park. (Idk what they intended on watering with it if it was working, dirt for miles o.o ) I mean, just look at this xD what are you watering park people?!
(also sorry for blurry username, i was rushed lol. I had a crate full of baby ducks whose mom was with my mom and they couldnt be released until i caught up lol)
7. Find something edible.
Cactus fruit is edible!
8. Find something prickly.
Cactus are the definition of prickly.
9. Find something green that isn't a plant or tree.
Katrina tore out the innards of her dog bed and left them laying around the yard...they just so happened to be green lol.
10. Find an orange flower.
Dried out cactus flower!
11. Find a yellow flower.
This bush had yellow flowers surrounded by pink ones.
12. Find a purple flower.
The pic makes it look more pink, but its like a berry-purple in person.
13. Find a butterfly.
14. Find a hole made by an animal.
Our sulcata tortoise, Thor, has made a very impressive hole/cave.
15. Find something with scales.
Thor also has scales.
16. Find a red leaf.
This was the only red leaf within visible distance. Idk where it came from but its there.
17. Find a plant that is budding.
18. Find a tree seedling.
19. Find something with fur.
My something furry insisted on nobody seeing the full username paper. Figured this was close enough lol.
20. Find something that can swim.
Mr. Chips can also swim. In fact, he likes to more than Katrina.

Scavenger List
1. Find an animal swimming in the water. https://puu.sh/w4HUt/1d3a2960ff.jpg https://puu.sh/w4HXu/49be2bde16.jpg I believe this bird is a Killdeer. It was taking a bath as well as swimming. Fun to watch~

I tried my best to take the shot in the same place as the butterfly was.

I had to zoom in with my cellphone camera so you could see them. The second picture with my username and date was taken out of zoom. If you look really carefully, you can also see some in the second picture too.
