The season continue to unfold. On walkies yesterday, I checked out the wetland. There isn't a lot of water, but enough that I can begin to move the frogs out. Last count, 16, but they are tricky. You can see one under the log, below. I think I moved 22 one year. It a bit of exercise, and I need to find a good bucket, but that might be today's challenge.
Down to the forest. At the far trailcam was a doe. All by herself! She pretty much ignored me.
Here they are wandering off in the distance. It's so peaceful. deer
Cinnamon flung himself up the tree, then came home with me for a rest. Beside him is the tree the bear stripped of bark.
The colours begin, the sumac beside the shed is so lovely. For now. The season is so short!
I've put up a couple of feeders. We will see how that unfolds.
The coyote visited the trailcam. It was a bit shy. I should have edited it more, but it returns at the end of the 30 seconds.
What is it? After dark, I heard a noise. I love me a good mystery. MVI_1156
Running to Flight Radar, I found out.
A bird or a plane?!

...I have been walking in the forest the last few days and there are mushrooms everywhere.
From previous years, I can't remember where or why you move frogs. Is it to get them to a place where water doesn't freeze over top of them?
Lots of fungus in the woods these days. We aren't finding anything edible lately. (My Mike is mushroom savy.)
Orang Air is never good. They flew my daughter to Ottawa when she had her never ending epileptic episode.
Actually, A/C you are close. The goldfish pond freezes and thaws with climate change. It used to freeze sold and stay that way over the winter. The frogs are better off in the frog pond, where it doesn't thaw in a warm spell, and they stay nice and comfy with their antifreeze.
Do you keep the pumpkin seeds for yourself or the animals and birds? down here, there is one special variety that is grown for the seeds, not the vegetable, for people. Quite expensive in the health food shops!!!
Yes must be careful of mushrooms, I even have some in my city yard!
Very little colour is appearing on the trees here yet.
Love those snuggle bears!
Trailcams do let you see animals in a way you can't in person.
I thought frogs were smart enough to find a place where they would survive over winter.
Mushroom pickers are working here and selling what they find for a little more income. - Margy
