Sukiyaki

Came across this today, and wow! does it bring back memories.

The video is nothing, but the music - listen to the music....

Now that's more like it.

It appears we have indeed defeated the squirrel! No pictures of him since we put in the baffle. Several other interesting ones to share with you, though:


This first one is a jay coming in for a landing. I just like the movement captured, and how spooky he looks.





This next one shows our White-Breasted Nuthatch, and one of our Chickadees.







And we ARE getting some pigeons; they don't miss a trick (or a free treat).

The fight for the feeder

This is what happens when you try to take bird pics using an automatic camera:
Not just one, but about a hundred out of focus pictures of a squirrel.
So, we have devised a clever plan to baffle this squirrel....we hope:
This is the top off a munchies platter from the local grocery store, with a hole poked through it and a fastener applied.
Wish us luck!

It's Winter....

 Not a fan, but winter is something one survives (hopefully) so that spring may occur. I miss Stitches, very much. Fortunately, we have Jasp...
