Loved the quiz Jim! I am a 15 so feel like I must explain! I
# 11 I can’t lie, I think moths are kind of creepy, but I am open to taking another look:). # 12 love to watch Hawks , but haven’t taken the time to go to the hawk watch ( need to change that) , #13 I find frogs slimy, but don’t hold it against them…..# 16 I am a little challenged sometimes with some species. Hope I can get extra credit for # 4. I had to dig a grave, sadly for my 18 year old cat that is not well, as I thought she wouldn’t make it through last winter (she did) a woodchuck moved in and I didn’t have the heart to evict him from his new home! -
I am a 1 percenter. 🙂
