Best Animal Sighting Ever

Saturday evening, we ventured up Logan Canyon to a picnic ground near Beaver Mountain Ski Resort. We had a great hot dog roast and even saw a bunny. But he wasn't the best animal sighting ever.
After dinner we drove about a 1/4 of a mile down the highway to the turnoff to Franklin Basin. We found some amazing white rock canyons that definitely beckon us back and some fine looking camping spots. At dusk we saw the most perfect specimen of porcupine ever. He walked across the road in front of us after we stopped and then paused to get his picture taken. We kept driving along the dirt road until it came out near Franklin, ID.

While Jonathan was in D.C. last we got a new pet in the backyard. I thought his picture could be included in the best animal sightings entry.

I think porcupines have very cute faces.

Is that a cat face spider? He's lovely.
