Hognoses are also known for their ability to play dead when threatened. They roll over on their back and often puke and poop, making them much less appatizing to potential predators.
Methimazole is the most common antithyroid (thionamide) medication used in cats.
Methimazole is available in tablets and as a transdermal patch. The transdermal patch has fewer side effects than the tablets.
Other side effects may include: hematologic problems, hepatopathy, and self-induced facial excoriations (Stortz, et al., 2004).
The biggest advantage of this medication is that it is inexpensive.

The Diving Heron 2 emerging after being totally submerged.
This is not ta great quality photograph, but I wanted to document the unusual behavior of a Great Blue Heron diving for fish in the middle of the Susquehanna River at the Conowingo Dam. There was a concentration of fish in the middle of the river being actively worked by cormorants and gulls.
This GBH flew over the are very slowly then it even attempted to hover, then it dived from maybe ten feet and completely submerged. It then floated downstream for some distance before struggling to make a deep water take-off.
I saw this behavior repeated three times, possibly by two different herons. The photos in the comment box below documents the complete sequence.
I have never seen herons diving this way, Certainly it was ludicrous and comical to see it trying to emulate a tern hovering and diving for fish.

This Carolina Chickadee paused at the edge of a water source for a quick drink, giving me just enough time to capture this moment.
I photographed this little bird in my Arkansas yard, where I keep fresh water available for wildlife. Chickadees are among the most energetic visitors I get, and it’s always rewarding when they slow down enough for a clear shot. I like how the bird’s posture and expression capture both alertness and calm.
Carolina Chickadees are year-round residents here and are known for their curious behavior and cheerful “chicka-dee-dee” calls.
Two Formica ants in trophallaxis (NOT KISSING). They are exchanging nutrients, so that one can keep feeding on yucca sap, and the other can carry food back to the colony for feeding larvae, the queen, and workers that don't leave the nest. This photo was taken at Cedar Point Biological Station near Ogallala, Nebraska.
Interesting behavior observed. The myna would drop the feather and then run after it as the breeze blew it over the mudflat, pick it up, and then repeat. It looked like play. Especially when the myna tired of it and flew away with no feather.
BlogOpen is half working half socializing events for bloggers, social media user and communication professionalist.
Same pair as yesterday. The naturalist on the island tells me the smaller one is probably the male, due to it's behavior of circling and swimming under the other.
