[sorefingers]

it seems that i can find more things like that than what we are looking for (coins,relics,rings ect.)

Yikes, back away from the nest quietly... same as I've had to do when I've met rattlesnakes on a few occasions. Yesterday, I was digging a target in some sandy soil by hand and came up with a big, fat lizard. I felt bad for waking him from his long winters nap, but just tucked him back in, unharmed. Later, I was digging a deep target with the long spade and pulled up another little lizard. Better than Scorpions or Tarantulas, though!
