This morning we were treated with the antics of four fawns coming together to hang out in our yard. It seems the moms brought them together to hang in a day care unit.

Here are the four of them mowing my lawn!

And this buck from last year is going to have one heck of a rack!

and not to be outdone, Mr turkey showed up for his share of corn!

 

I didn't take this picture, but this morning on my walk I saw a baby deer exactly this size.  As I came around the curve by the hiking trail, she walked right up to me as if she knew me.

 

She seemed to be by herself, so I called for Momma.  Because Baby had a mind to follow me!!  

 

So, if you're walking, keep an eye out.  If you're driving, GO SLOW!!!!  You might get to see her.

 

LOVE THE DEER!!!

 

Yep, I want to be a cat in this house!!!!   

 

This is Ranger, he is 14 years old, and moves from sunspot to sunspot.  

 

HAPPY KITTY!!!

 

I hope you have checked out the Titmouse nest.  There are four hungry babies, and one very busy Momma bird!!!!!

 

Here's the link:   https://wbu-yorktown.click2stream.com/

 

Go look before they fledge!!  It could be soon.

 

LOVE THE BIRDS!!!

 

 

We have lots of bluebirds here. We see them year round.  Fascinating to watch as they build nests, raise babies, and bring joy to our neighborhood.

 

You can have a "bird's eye view" by going to   https://wildbirds-1.click2stream.com/  and see inside the Yorktown nest box.  Right now they are building a new nest for the next brood.

 

Or....You can build a bluebird house of your own and see for yourself.  The dimensions are available online, and not that hard to build.  Sounds like a good winter project!!!!  But don't wait til then.....  :)

 

 

LOVE THE BIRDS!!!

 

If you loved watching the bluebird nest, you might enjoy this new angelcam on the titmouse nest.

 

They are very different, and fun to see inside the nest.  When can we ever do that?

 

Go to  Yorktown titmouse nest and see into another world.

 

LOVE THE BIRDS!!!

 

I hope you are still checking on the bluebird nest in Yorktown.  There are two babies, and they actually look like birds now!  They are adorable!!!!!  And they are getting very active.

 

Here, I'll make it easy for you....  Just click on the link.  Better hurry!  They will fledge soon, really soon.

 

 https://wildbirds-1.click2stream.com/   GO THERE NOW!!!!!

 

 

LOVE THE BIRDS!!!

 

Momma is still on the nest.  And yesterday we saw her feeding two tiny chicks!!!!

 

Go there NOW!!!!     https://wildbirds-1.click2stream     You'll be glad you did!!!!!

 

I just learned that Mr. Bluebird has a white eye-ring and is brighter than Mrs. Bluebird.  Now we can tell WHO is babysitting.  Still just two babies.  Hmmm.  Wonder what that means.  Keep watching!!!!.

 

LOVE THE BIRDS!!!!!

 

I hope you're still checking on the bluebird nestbox at  https://wildbirds-1.click2stream.com/

 

I looked yesterday and saw 5 pretty blue eggs.  They should be hatching any day now.....Go look!!

 

FASCINATING!!!!

 

Well, not MY backyard, but my friends' backyard.  Right outside their dining room window!!!!  

 

This Barred owl has been coming to their backyard for years.  We assume it's the same one... 

 

Anyway, it is perched on the hook that holds several bird feeders.  I'm betting that THAT'S his intention:  bird feeding.  Whatever his intent, we're so happy he held still long enough to have his picture taken.

 

LOVE THE BIRDS!!!
