💰Firstly, I am irked. I've had an issue with my credit card. It's been compromised. It is so frustrating. The bank caught it, phoned me and sent an email to contact the bank's department. The card is cancelled and they will send a new one. No money disappeared. Thankfully. It happened last May, as well. We finished watching Mr and Mrs Smith (2024) for a change of pace. Wooh.
Cooler temperatures and the critters are on the move. It's not cold enough to put out the bird feeders. The bears will still be out and about! However, Blue Jay is lobbying. Every afternoon it'll come to the railing. It is the funniest thing.
Then, I spotted a grouse out in the front yard.
Out by the frog pond, coyote! They keep marking the spot.
I've been trying to capture the woodpecker who is going after the dead tree. So far, no luck!
The deer have been gathering. They are after my hostas. They might as well. We're getting a frost soon and they will not be worth eating.
The fawns have lost their spots. Apparently the was some grooming required!

Great critter post Jenn! I love the Grouse, awesome visitor. The deer are always favorites. Thank you for linking up and sharing your critter post. Take care, have a great weekend.
I am so sorry about your card
I am so sorry about your card problem. Our bank account was hacked recently. It came through an email, very official looking from our ‘bank’, hubs pressed the link and it took several phone calls to get it cleared up, because they kept getting in. The bank’s fraud department were very kind, very patient. It was one of those times he was expecting something from our bank, and he was very tired. That’s all it took, one nasty little link. Your videos are splendid! Always enjoy them. We haven’t started filling our feeders yet, but we are getting more visits. They seem to know it will be soon. The lady feeding the gulls thinks she is being kind I suppose. She isn’t really, to us or to the gulls.
...gulls are eating and pooping machines!
Issues with attempted card theft are very annoying, though I give credit to the card companies for catching the frauds very quickly and protecting the card holders’ funds. We once lost money because of this anyway — because our card had been cancelled, we didn’t get a rebate that was due to us. (It wasn’t enough money to try to correct the error, if that would have even been possible). Good luck with no more of that!
Nice critters — even if the deer do eat hostas…. mae at maefood.blogspot.com
Loved seeing all your critters doing their lives. So glad your telephoto lens capture that grouse so well!
So sorry about your card! Good you were alerted
I look forward to your pics of the deer in winter although not to the winter itself.
I love your critters and am glad that the card issue was picked up before any damage was done. An inconvenience just the same.
Thank you for inviting us into your beautiful world. Aloha!
You have a lot of wildlife in your area.
Credit and debit card issues seem to be getting more common. Glad to hear that yours was resolved without any financial hardship.
How neat to see the grouse. And I hate seeing people feed birds or fish the wrong kind of food too. The weather is changing here now...finally a little cooler after the storms! Hugs!
My mother used to talk about hunting grouse in southeast Idaho, where she grew up. She said that hunting them was easy because they didn't flee.
I love your coyote. Apparently we have them in the greenspace in the neighborhood. I haven't seen one here for years. They would haul off our little pipsqueak pomeranian with no problem.
I love your deer. I was out hiking yesterday and came upon a doe and her fawn and they took off before I could get a photo.
Your birds are a hoot. Where I tutor, the room we used to use had a mirrored window and a cardinal would show and want to fight himself. The kids loved it.
Sorry to hear about the credit card issue. Lots of critters are coming and going these days.
We went through a period of time where every time we turned around a new card needed to be issued, but that eventually died down to none. Love all your videos. Nice to see some country life.
