Waning light

Hydrangea in the late afternoon...

So darn hot!

It's been in the 90's lately...Barely have the energy to walk around the corner for some ice cream ;-). "Sundaes at the Cottage" - cute name, huh?

Breaking the news

This is Max, after I told him that they found a permanent home for him. If

he doesn't seem too happy about the news, you should see how I felt...

Pass the milk, please!

Both fawns are suckling, while their mom is keeping a close eye on me...

You can see a short video here.

Incarcerated

This is the only way we can enjoy our gardens - protected from deer with a net...

Jim's song

"Please Mister Postman, look and see
If there's a letter, a letter for me..."

Profusion

Donna's flowering begonia.

Spotted

Normally, a doe would stay with her young ones for a year. In this case, however, the fawns are roaming our hillside alone...

Disposables

After 4 years of showering you with love, could you give him up? Someone did...

The toad and the turtle

We all know what happens when you kiss a frog...but when a frog kisses a turtle?

How do you spell "puppy"?

Here's Buster in his new home, with his new best friend, Nicole. It's apparent, we don't need to worry about him anymore, do we? But we will miss him...

Solitaire

Not a good year for the crabapple tree...single blossom only...

I didn't mean you!

Harmless male mosquitoes, hanging around the flag, looking for the ladies...

(You know that only female mosquitoes bite, don't you?)

Bittersweet

Today, Buster leaves for his forever home. Happy life, little buddy...

D-Troop

Jim's wildlife. (Notice no mouths with which to feed on his gardens ;-))

Family affair

All the ducks in a row...

In motion

Little Red Riding Hood?

Lunchables

Have you had your greens today?

Wood wasp

Chew on that!

Sourpuss

I am not amused with the lack of worms around here!

Mr. Peacock

Overlooking his domain (busted tail and all!)

Buster Keaton

On the mend...

Getting a buzz

Bumble bee on phlox ;-)
