Saw three of these turtles, all seemed to have been eviscerated but still alive. Poor babies :(

In garage. I usually find them below the Live Oak. I'm posting the spider separately.
This whiptail has a mouthful of an Orthopteran buffet.
Two of the three "climbers" are Graptemys versa... separate observation...
Screech Owl sitting on the water buckets set out for wildlife during the flash drought of 2015.
The berries found on the tree were yellow and were browning. The rest of the tree itself seemed healthy but it didn't have any leaves. The berries were probably yellow or a light green if they were healthy. The bark of the tree was an orange-brown color and sturdy. Berries were also found at the very top of the tree probably feeding off of the sunlight.
