[CynthiaSillitoe]

I'm lurking. It's such a great theme...I'll have to see if I can get good drawings.

[flashviv]

Love lurkers CynthiStilltoe, I hope you join us.

[Elliejaybird]

I love this. Mine is a crow. Sign me up

[OrigamiGrace]

LOL, great theme and fun quiz - I'll play!

[flashviv]

Good to have you playing Ellejaybird and OrigamiGrace. Let us know your spirit animal when you have it worked out OrigamiGrace.

[OrigamiGrace]

Dragonfly!

[CynthiaSillitoe]

I got raccoon and I actually think I could draw racoons, so....deep breath...I'm in!

[Everlorne]

I would like to join.

My spirit animal is the wolf.

[Ancient Planter]

I love this theme and plan to sign up, but am unsure which spirit animal to use. Through years of meditation I have a hawk and a wolf; crows often follow and talk with me on my walks in real life; the test you have here gave me a deer. Plus, according to JK Rowling and the Harry Potter Universe, my petronus is a little owl. So which to choose? Let me think about, and meditate on it.

[Mushu]

I would love to play. My spirit animal is a frog.

[flashviv]

Welcome Mushu, CynthiaSillitoe, Everlone and Ancient Planter. You're all signed up to the menagerie.

Ancient Planter, the spirit animal this quiz popped out for me was a deer too but I have it on good authority that mine is a heron (the authority being that I feel something quite special when I am birdwatching on wetlands and spending time with the herons). Looking forward to seeing what you go with here.

CynthiaS I thought you would being going with elephants for sure!!

[Bluevioletz]

Sign me up please! I'll let you know my spirit animal later.

[flashviv]

Welcome Bluevioletz. Looking forward to finding out what your spirit animal is.

[jtpaints]

I'll play. I'll let you know what my spirit animal is later.

[AndromedasWitchery]

What a great idea!!!!
Would like to join!!!!

And... Spirit Animal is the Horse....
Maybe that explain a lot why I love spending time with them... (Not necessarily riding, just with them.)

[flashviv]

Welcome to the swap AndromedasWitchery. Great to see a horse joining us.

I thought we needed to use the one in this quiz. Hmm...I may do several, including an elephant. I'm very drawn to bears, too. But there will definitely be at least one raccoon because I'm quite enchanted by the idea. It's not something I would have ever thought of on my own, but I am a night creature and a bit of a scavenger, so I can kinda see it.

[Ancient Planter]

I've decided on the Hawk, so please put that down for my spirit animal.

[TrinaLD]

Okay, I'm in. Looks like fun. Took the quiz and my spirit animal is a seahorse. I like seahorses but that's not really the one I'd expected - lol.
