The Last of the Fall Kitties


Before the Snow stuck... I went for a nice walk on a fall day with the kitties...

They had Bales to climb, things to Hunt, and dry paws... they were Happy!

New Bird 182 - Red Bellied Woodpecker

Soo.. there came word that this beautiful Red Bellied Woodpecker was spotted in Grenfell... Soo, the day after a large group headed up and had a brief sighting.. I headed up! After an hour, I went and visited the lady of the house, who informed me I was too far away.... Within minutes, I had my first sighting..

This beautiful bird isnt supposed to be anywhere near us!

Snowflakes Pt 2...

Most snowflakes are 6 pointed.. Ones that are more, are an anomaly... but any sides, any patterns... it is all Beautitful!!



Sometimes the patterns are more distinct.. sometimes, not..


This one I originally thought was 2 stuck together... but it seems to be one single, very many armed snowflake!



I love them all!!
