Critters: To Each His Own 022716

Backyard Sentry
While the other backyard birds flit from feeder to feeder,
the Mourning Dove often takes up a perch and remains there;
often for an hour or two.
 
For a variety of Critters join:

Saturday Critters 103115

Horrible, horrible photos taken on the fly and through the screen.
 But a critter is a critter.
And he was making off with my pretty acorn, tsk!

Backyard Birds 101715 and State Park (updated)

The Robins are back out of hiding
to feast on the dogwood berries.
 

Then a flock of Cedar Waxwings
came along to duke it out with the Robins 

 
On the other side of the house the new feeder has been found.

This silly Woodpecker spent more time
trying to ward off the Chick a Dees and Titmouse
than it did eating.

What a ruckus!
 
Last week I had the closest encounter
with  my pal the Osprey
of the whole summer.

A Critter and a Bird

You never know what's on the other side.
And you'll never know if you don't climb the fence.

I Spy

This barn doesn't fit my criteria as a unique barn
but it is special for one reason.
Can you spy the critter that make's it so?

 The RG travels this way from time to time
and told me to watch for this cutie.
He says it is in the same spot every time.
It was there in the morning when we drove by.
It was there in the afternoon when we returned home.
 
The angle of the photos is due to me snapping it
with the camera turned backwards out the window;
with the LCD screen rotated as we sped by.
So I was quite thrilled that I caught my subject.
~ ~ ~ ~  
 
Spied this fella or lady on my lunch break this week.
I'm calling it Punxsutawney Phil's kissin' cousin 'Chuck'.
since we are only a couple counties away
from the town of film fame - Ground Hog Day.
(the RG will not be happy to discover our new resident)

Noting Nature 070615


Hail, hail the gang's all here.
Butterflies aren't the only ones attracted to milkweed.
 
 
 Honey bees
 
Japanese Beetle and Housefly
 
The beetle is probably more interested in the leaf
and the fly, well just sunning  itself.
