David Orr holds Bee Cave Bob after the seven-year-old, nine-banded armadillo emerged to predict the weather during Armadillo Day at the West Pole in Bee Cave, Texas, on Wednesday, February 2, 2022. Armadillo Day started in 2010 as Texas' answer to Groundhog Day in Punxsutawney, Pa. “We don't need no mangy groundhog in Pennsylvania predicting the weather for us”, said T. Boothe, the founder of the event and owner of the West Pole, a five-acre piece of Hill Country land next to the 98th meridian. Boothe predicts an early Spring after watching the armadillo.
