Armadillo

There are many things that inspire me, but mostly my environment. I live in the country in the Argentine Pampas, which is flat grasslands, with wildlife and non wildlife animals. I came across this armadillo near an abandoned farmhouse. It turned out to be a pretty friendly creature. It let me get close enough to photograph, and even came close to smell my boots at one point. The next time I saw it I got a chance to touch it too. I love the little nose, hairs, and texture of this little creature.
