I think the transmission in my 2007 Mazda3 is toast. It had been shifting badly and the AT indicator light turned on the last couple of times I drove it, so decided to try and scan it for error codes. Nothing came up so I thought I would take it around the block. Didn’t even make it up the hill before the magic smoke escaped. Fortunately, I was able to roll back home.
Anyway, here’s a shot of a pill bug on some stringy stonecrop.
Just a fun fact: They’re not insects, but crustaceans, and they like moisture. They’re originally from the Mediterranean area. If you search you’ll occasionally find a blue one. They are valuable in bioremediation since they consume heavy metals. This makes them less tasty to predators.
