Crumbly Acres Critters

Time to explore!

I came across this video. We'd purchased leftover pumpkins one year from Miller's Bay Farm (2022) for the deer. They had a bumper crop that year. Peter, the buck was quite keen.  That won't happen this year with a drought, and fewer produce than in other years.



Oct. 16th, I noticed a robin in the bird bath. There was another, then they were scared off by the mourning dove! 


 


The lady beetles gather in doorways in the sun before winter sets in.


   

 The skunk is still hanging around! It's looking for grubs, and digging little divots.

 

We've a dump of rain today. It is wonderful. I roared around on the lawn tractor mulching leaves. Mostly on the driveway, as once it rains they stick.

Our robin pair are still bathing!

Cinnamon gave me a tick. I could feel something crawling, and used the camera to check. We stuck it on a piece of tape. I won. 

We've done pretty well this year. I track them just for data. 
Garbage is out. I didn't get soaked. Let's all have a good week!
