Leech

With all of the recent rains, pastures are flooding and flooded fields are overflowing.  Ditches are full, and some roads are getting covered with water.  On a flooded road shoulder today, I saw this leech working its way along through the water.  I scooped it into an Icee cup (the pink stain in the water is strawberry, not blood).  I wanted to bring it home to watch it, but I realized I'd need to find something to feed it.  There's not really a lot of blood in the fridge, so I decided to let it go.
