What is the thing you see most on your rides?

[Clare]

I thought this would be a fun survey...I hope I'm not beating an old thread here!....But what thing or things do you see most on your bike rides? It can be anything.
Here's my 2 cents worth~
It seems there are more trucks out there then anything...maybe I notice them the most because they always seem to get a tad bit too close!
and
If I collected gloves, I'd have quite a collection of singles!

On Monday, my BF and I were riding through one of the ritziest neighborhoods in Atlanta (West Paces Ferry Road) and we saw a HUGE dead rat. It was somewhat comforting to know that even rich folks have problems!

On my usual rides: squirrels, chipmunks, horses, cows, dogs/dogs/dogs, deer, rabbits, occasionally sheep, goats and llamas!

One time, I saw a skydiver almost bite it - pulled out of dive at the very last second.

Oh! And, out in Colorado, we rode past a brand spankin' new foal. Literally minutes old.

Nice calves.

Gopher Tortoises!!

I love them. As I go by, I always say "Mr. Turtle!!!" and they crouch down like they're all surprised. I ride a lot on Rails-to-Trails, which are the perfect habitat- little sandy hills that they can build their homes in. I love seeing them sitting on their front porches, or out grazing like little armored cows in the rain.

Mostly the backsides of the riders in front of me.
