We have four of them and they mostly come out at dusk. But…not today! Diane and I came home from shopping errands and lo and behold, two of the “babies” were at the squirrel feeder (4 o’clock). One of them was completely inside the feeder. That’s the first shot below. The one that was on … Read more
Coming home from a baseball game yesterday this bird let me within a dozen feet. I don’t really like the lens because the sharpness is just not there but…not too bad because I was so close. The critters are definitely settling in. We have baby squirrels that only come out at night. The momma raccoon … Read more
For a two or three weeks, well, maybe four, we’ve had a raccoon show up in the most un-raccoon like hours, for instance, 5:00 p.m. or 8 p.m. which are not “nocturnal” hours. She goes to the squirrel feeder and settles in for a meal. We can go out on the front porch and talk … Read more
Actually, I think they’ve never left, they just leave us alone for awhile. We have had a family of foxes for at least ten years. We have ground hogs, birds upon birds upon birds, feral cats, chipmunks, bad-bad snakes, a gazillion squirrels, and….raccoons.

I think the day-to-day unusual and unpredicatable temperature swings from 50 degrees to 8 degrees have thrown me off. Who knows but that’s a good story and so I’m sticking with that theme. The last two weeks have sort of flown by with little time to plan or reflect so that’s a message to slow … Read more

Sadly, the last Christmas decorations were put in the garage for 11 more months. Kelsey and I started the weekend with a very quick walkabout in Old Town. The temperature was 8 degrees and there was wind…who knows what “the wind chill factor” was but I can tell you that only a half dozen vendors were … Read more
