Saturday's Critters

I'll begin with a #75 report. This is the squirrel we released after rehab at our local place. I think! Proof of life, but not a great photo. He was bouncing around the yard.

I like watching the bucks. They shed their antlers in January or February around here. In spring, they begin to grow back. In the meantime...




 This is Tigger and Oliver, a cat we used to have. He had such character, following me when I took Oliver for walks. His sibling would follow a little further behind in the forest.


He great up to be a terrific buck.

Tigger, July, 2016

By August, the antlers look like this:



To give some mention to the doe, here she is. Still pregnant AFAIK!

   


 Fred is still out and about. 




 I had a video of Cinnamon for size, and then Fred (maybe miniFred?), roaring down the driveway. Those little legs! If you have time to watch, you will giggle.

  1. I understood that in Canada, two bucks are now called Twonies.

  4. SO cute. Makes me want to reach out and touch the fuzzy antlers. The Cinny / Fredlet race is better than the Olympics. Linda in Kansas

  6. Fred jumps along, or little Fred. Loved seeing the male deer and their antlers returning.

  7. How neat that you have your own forest there and can see all the wildlife on your camera. Outdoors is where I love to be and I get so much joy out of seeing all the little critters in your videos....
