It's Monday! Awwww! September 14, 2015

 We love all the animals
we see on our 10.5 acres. 
 
 
After all they were here first!

 
 
 
 
 
We've learned to expect that they
will periodically eat some plant we
wanted to keep- but we've learned to
either accept those vegetative losses
or plant them where they cannot
get to them. That's why our veggie
garden is totally fenced!
 
 
Have a totally awesome day!
~~~
Thanks Sandee for Awww Mondays!

It's Awww Monday! August 24, 2015

Lots of Jackrabbits this year!
 

They love to graze on our lawn.
Russell encourages them as it means
less mowing for Russell!
 
 
Below is a close up - a bit fuzzy
since I took this far away. 

 
They really are nice little animals.
 
Meanwhile, have a great week and do
pop over to Comedy Plus and
thank Sandee for Awww Mondays!

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!
