All of this week’s rain here in the south appears to have brought a new visitor to my lawn. Last night I took a picture of this crayfish wandering through the grass here in Cary, NC. I don’t live near any notable body of water — just your typical retention ponds in the area. In 16 years here in the triangle, I’ve never seen a crayfish on my or any other lawn. Anyone else seen this before and/or have any insight? Or is this the first sign of the Armageddon?
