CUTEST TINY RED SQUIRREL
Not only do I think this is the most adorable squirrel I’ve ever seen, but he (she?) is probably the tiniest. He must be a baby because he wasn’t even as big as a chipmunk and they are pretty small…. Read More ›
NATURE AND NATURAL
CFFC: Nature Big and powerful, small and feathered, we are part of nature and she is part of us.
THE CHANGING SEASONS – AUGUST 2022
THE CHANGING SEASONS for August 2022 It has been a minimally photographic month, mostly because it has been HOT HOT HOT. And dry, dry, dry 🔥Then we got a little bit of rain — just enough to make the ragweed… Read More ›
Y’GOTTA READ BEFORE Y’WRITE, RIGHT?
Blogging Insights NF # 52 — Reading “The first step in blogging is not writing them but reading them.” — Jeff Jarvis I agree, although for me, it’s just reading, then reading more. I’ve always been such an insane reader…. Read More ›
BIRDS IN THE GARDEN, SQUIRRELS ON THE WATCH
We really are currently overrun by woodpeckers. When I went into the kitchen this morning, there was a Downy woodpecker clinging to the screen door begging for food. I’m pretty sure they are all breeding, too and that’s why they… Read More ›
WORLD SHARING IN MID-AUGUST
Share Your World 15th August Thank you, Di, for keeping this going! I’m hoping we find out how Melanie is doing soon, too. Hard to believe it’s the middle of August. Summer has slipped by in a haze of broiling hot… Read More ›
THE CHANGING SEASON – JULY 2022
The Changing Season, July 2022 – SERENDIPITY Seeking Intelligent Life On Earth Remarkably we have somehow avoided getting COVID. Maybe it was all those vaccinations. Both Garry and I have each had four. Owen needs a booster and I hope… Read More ›
ONE LITTLE RED SQUIRREL
The latest baby squirrels are up and about and eating like there’s no tomorrow. Of course with everything dry and burnt, there isn’t much to eat. Normally, there would be more than enough food, but with no rain, everything is… Read More ›
SKETCHBOOK 75 – SQUIRREL ON A PERCH
He is looking down because that’s where the food is. Squirrels are always planning. Mostly planning where to get their next meal. When we still could afford to keep flat feeders, the top of the post was a great vantage… Read More ›
BIRDS OF MANY FEATHERS, A SQUIRREL, AND A SNAPPING TURTLE
It’s fun to go back and look and pictures taken just a couple of months ago, notice how the population has changed with the seasons. Right now, the flowers are dominating where I usually take pictures of birds.
SKETCHBOOK 73 – FORGOTTEN SQUIRRELS
Apparently I never got around to posting this particular squirrel as he nests happily in his tree. I drew two squirrels that day, so here are both of them. The second one is a favorite or mine, not because of… Read More ›
CIRCLES AND CURVES
CFFC: Circles or Curves All kinds of rounds and curves, from Beacon Hill to a deck feeder and one very round-bottomed squirrel.
SKETCHBOOK 64 – THREE GOLDFINCH AND A STORY
CRAZY SQUIRRELS AND PUSHY DOVES There’s a lot going on in and around our deck. The squirrels are freaking out, the doves are pushing smaller birds out of the way (doves? really?), and I’m pretty sure raccoons and flying squirrels… Read More ›
SQUIRRELS
Some of my cuter and more athletic squirrels demanded a viewing, so here they are!
SKETCHBOOK 67 – THE ACROBATIC SQUIRREL
It’s amazing some of the things we see our squirrels doing out there. They are incredibly agile, which probably explains their big spidery feet. They do a lot of clinging to tiny little branches that you wouldn’t think would be… Read More ›
