We've had a change in weather. I don't mind. My new header is from 2009 in Bala, Muskoka.
The goldfish are happy in their indoor tank. We freeze too solid in winter to keep them outside.
Percy, the large one (named after my ex-late-FIL's piranha), is a specialty goldfish. He feeds on the bottom. I don't think he is a koi, I thought they told me, when I bought him, he was a Shubutkin, but I believe I am wrong! He comes to the glass and wags his tail in anticipation of food. What we have to watch is that they are opportunistic feeders and will eat whatever is put in front of them. You risk overfeeding and killing them.
The gray tree frogs seem to be appearing less and less frequently. Maple, and the other one, snoozing on the railing, again.
The trailcams have had some critters go by.

I love watching them. The coyotes usually pee here. The raccoons look for grubs and frogs. After 37 videos of a red squirrel on the trailcam, Butch finally appeared!

And those are my critters! If you'd like to view more wildlife, go visit Eileen's critter party #460!

Always a joy... YAM xx
Great critters all. Love your tank with goldfish. When I put my tropicals in a big tank, it was sometimes hard to find them, except the big angel. Many moons ago.
We haven't seen as many raccoons around this year as usual.
Your first deer video is so peaceful, and the coyotes were fascinating. I also enjoyed seeing the fish and the frog. Percy is a great name for a fish. Wishing you a wonderful weekend Jenn and thank you for another lovely post :)
Your goldfish look totally settled in their winter quarters. And I love your other critters too.
Your cameras give you a good look at what goes on at night.
Raccoons waddling about make me smile.
I've never understood why some species of animals eat till they die. It seems wrong, evolutionary-wise. Everyone on the game cams looks healthy and well fed. Especially the coyotes. Sigh.
You do have a lot of material for Saturday Critters.
I continue to be impressed with your goldfish. I had friends once who had a huge indoor tank for goldfish, and that's when I first found out they would grow as long as there was room. They were fun to watch. I found out they'd eat as long as there was food when I got my first goldfish when I was a child. The fish lived, and I learned a lesson there.
Your trail cams must be fun to review all the footage from. You never know what you'll see!
The twin fawns are such a special sighting. Love your new Fall banner...gorgeous!
I'm loving your fall header.
