He's figured out a way to outsmart
the supposed "squirrel-proof" feeder!
Clever little devil!
He loves sunflower seeds!

Wildlife Weekend and Aww Mondays


The weather on Sunday was a bit dramatic with
the huge clouds in the sky......
I spent some time just sitting on the deck watching
the world go by.


As I was going outside I spotted Mr Tom Turkey
 outside the dining room window having a
morning snack under the bird feeder....


Of course the robins are always on the lawn 
looking for a nice tasty worm to eat.  


Wow what a surprise ! The local Jackrabbit hopped
by and didn't realize how close I was.



When he did spot me he hopped away a bit....
look how much longer his back legs are.
All the better to run away.....


He ( or she...not sure ) stopped- looked at me one more time
and speedily hopped away.....it's amazing how
the animals here really do blend in when not moving.
Awwww he's pretty darn cute!

U is for Unbelieveable Crime Scene

U !!


Unbelievable
It had to be a bear that ripped apart
the bird feeder and evidently made off
with a local farmer.....only some clothes
were left and no sign of life anywhere.
What do you think happened?

O is for Onions, Oatmeal and Oh my!

O!!!


Onions are an important staple in our home!
A lot of our favorite recipes begin with
"first chop one onion".


Oatmeal! A great way to begin your day!
We prefer the Steel cut oatmeal to the dull flaky kind.
Add some raisins and Golden Lyme syrup for a real treat.


OH MY!
We were so surprised to see these birds
yesterday morning at the bird feeder.
Evening Grosbeaks- very gregarious, travel
in large groups and are monogamous!
I apologize for the blurry photo- but it was
the best I could do at the moment!
