I wrote about Fred's burrows yesterday. They are epic! I have to assure @Karen that there was a very sturdy base with two concrete pads. Sand and large gravel chunks, which Fred managed to move, probably went down with the house. I'm glad we're in the country.
🦝 I haven't noticed many raccoons this year. This one was on the trailcam, but alone. We'll see if they show up. They often do turn up with kits in tow. They slumber over winter, and maybe their systems are out of whack with the warm/cold temperatures we've had.

The trailcams themselves have been fairly quiet. Not many coyotes. I guess food is more easily available.

We had a couple of turkey hens go by in the forest, but Archie hasn't been around.
Instead, just a lone hen in the yard in the rain.

I caught it twice on camera, jumping from the bird bath to the feeder. Hubby has seen it jumping from the horse chestnut tree behind the feeder onto the feeder. April 13. It is a very strong gray squirrel.

Wow indeed! That squirrel is well fed by your bird seed, thus he thinks he can fly like a bird, almost!
I found out there is not way to keep the squirrels from eating all the bird food. Love the turkey and your pretty flowers. Take care, enjoy your day and have a happy week!
That is a determined squirrel.
Percy is gone? Aww.
How I love your critters - which are all exotica to me.
No, AC. Percy is quite cold, but still hanging in. He isn't budging in this cold rain.
The calm before a lot of activity. Fingers crossed! Very exciting time at your place. Aloha!
...daffodils ever disappoint!
Flying squirrels are difficult to photograph. Here they are only active at night as far as I know.
Nature is surely amazing, and I always leave amazed at all that you have around your home.
That squirrel jump is amazing.
