A hunting I will go.....

G'day, Blogophiles.

Got a bit of an adventure for you today! Come along with me as we go hunting for the elusive Beccarillis Custodialalis, last seen somewhere in Animal Kingdom, and said to be going extinct!! Let's get going!

The hunt began in Camp Minnie-Mickey, last known whereabouts of The Becca. Realizing my tracking skills may be inadequate for the task at hand, I enlisted the help of some locals.

They were, however, barely even concentrating on their fishing adventure, much less my jungle trek.

Continuing on through the underbrush, I came upon a stream, and on the other side, a troop of Junior Woodchucks out on a hike.

They were friendly enough but provided me with little assistance on my search.

Seeming as good a direction as any, I followed the sign. It, however, led me not to a lion, but to a small owl with a woman on its foot.

The woman paid me no attention, and the owl kept turning away, so I continued on.

Just then, I spotted something off in the distance! Could it be?!?

Hmmm, no. Not a Becca, but instead a giant mouse. First a tiny owl, then a giant mouse. What sort of strange jungle is this??

Ah, finally, a park ranger! Perhaps he can help!

Hmmm, no. Too busy to help. Oh well. The hunt continues.

Wait!!! Off in the distance!! No, it's not a giant rodent this time!! It's a.......it's a......

IT"S A BECCA!!!

She's emerging from the crowded jungle! I fear she has spotted me, and I fear for my safety...

She's coming right for us!! Cute, but deadly.

Wait, maybe, just maybe, this excellent example of a Beccarillis Custodialalis is a peaceful creature after all. Well-dressed, kid-friendly, and oh so cute, maybe we can survive the jungle hunt for The Becca after all.

Before being able to head home, though, first I had to make it out of the jungle. And, as sometimes happens in a rain forest, well, it started to rain. A lot. On me. A lot.

But have no fear my intrepid trekkers, we have made it out safe and sound, if not a bit moist.

The Becca was so cute in fact, I decided to bring her home with me. I don't recommend this for those of you reading at home, but I am a professional, trained to handle dangerous Beccas.

That's all for now, my lovelies. Take care.

Cute, Thomas, very cute. I want to see pictures of everyone in their uniforms. Not necessarily together, Thomas, so waiting for that moment is no excuse.

PS: Banjo is still sitting beside me. Hurry.
