The other day I was trying to take photos of a bird through our bathroom window. I happened to notice movement in our garden, but it’s too far away to make out what it was. I feared it was a ground hog. I zoomed in and started taking photos of what I thought was a baby ground hog. The photos were blurry but still I kept trying. Then the critter started to come further out in the yard and I saw it was a squirrel. I didn’t recognize the species though. After it disappeared into the woods, I looked it up on the internet and discovered that it’s a Fox Squirrel. I was so excited. That’s so neat. I didn’t realize we had them around here.
I wanted to share my fox squirrel with you all, so I took the best of the photos of it and tinkered with them in Photoscape. I think they turned out well enough for you to see what a charming critter it is. 🙂
Wishing you all a charming rest of the week.
Wishing you all a wonderful Wednesday!
Yesterday the skinks were out running around the porch. I managed to get a few photos of them; most were blurs. These two photos are the better of the lot. I reckon someday in the near future there will be a tiny skink or two running at lightning speeds across the porch.
This beautiful Turkey hen has been cruising our garden. We figure she has or will soon have a nest of eggs close by. We enjoy watching baby turkey’s grow from fuzz-balls to full feathered birds. I’ll post photos of her new poults if she’ll bring them within my camera range. (A baby turkey is called a poult.)
I’m happy to report that we got our 1st harvest of green onions out of the garden. My husband ate a few with supper last night.
The Poplar trees are blooming. I wish I could pick some blooms to enjoy in the house a day or two; our poplars are too tall for that. So as my blogging buddy
