The Cat Pounced June 7, 2017
Katerina eyeing the squirrel – I looked away and next thing I knew the cat was in the air and the squirrel’s tail was out of reach. What a picture that would have made. I think they like to taunt each other in an uneasy(?) relationship.
Little Brown Birds January 2, 2017
I love the little brown birds that come and go from my deck. They remind me of Kenya and the many trips we made to the game park near Nairobi. I had a friend who would say “just another little brown job” – disappointing when we were on the lookout for something a bit rarer.

My friend one of the resident squirrels enjoying sunflower seeds – meant for the birds but the squirrels usually get there first.
Later in the day the birds came but the sunshine was gone.

My visiting squirrels almost always turn up first when I put out peanuts for them on the railing of our deck.
