Residents of La Savane
La Savanne is, I suppose, a suburb of Grand Case. I’m not sure if there is an actual town there or just a sign. At any rate, today I spent some hours in a field there and saw many interesting creatures.
My favorites were:
- A fuzzy, yellow-green beetle.
- A colorful caterpillar that I had not seen before.
- A couple different small, green Orthopterans.
- An impressively regal white moth with black and red markings.
- Several interesting spiders, including one living in a pocket of web and another that seemed to be guarding an egg case shaped like a spiky ball.
Additionally, there were many familiar butterflies, some other small beetles, some very small freshwater fish and a horse skull guarding a garden.
