Saturday's Critters

 The hummers are back. I'd missed them. They are both at the feeders and at the bleeding hearts.



Fred is doing extensive renos on the burrow under the shed. It has a 3" concrete floor, so I'm not too worried! He chirped at me, trying to scare me away.

The arrogant little twerp knocked the trailcam as it went by!

Out walking, I spotted a brown creeper. You'll have to trust me!

They are a delight. Unlike nuthatches who go down the tree upside down, they go up the tree looking for bugs! 


This we shall call an artistic video! We get deer after dusk and around dawn.

The bucks are growing their antlers back!

I thoroughly enjoyed all of your wildlife here Jenn, but found Fred particularly amusing in his video. Lovely captures of all the animals!

Looks like Fred is getting an attitude! I hope that big buck made it through the winter, I would love to see what his antlers look like this year!

For whatever reason, I chuckled with the close-up of the groundhog on the video. He looked like he definitely was on a mission!

Fred looks fierce up on the deck.

Hummers? Jealous thoughts. Which is silly because we also have some beautiful birds.

Fred is a character! Nice shot of the bird looking for bugs. The bunny looks so cute with its eyes closed, having a little rest.

Wow it is all going on at your place! The Hummers are the one thing I do miss about my time in California. Aloha, Jenn

Oh Fred, knocking at the camera. Perhaps it makes some noise when it's working...though with all digital, I'd wonder what. Love the eyes of Labbit in the dark.

today I was thinking about antlers growing back. I haven't seen a deer for a few weeks.
