Seen in the new green grass

Oh look! There's a bunny! Maybe it's the Easter bunny!

Ooops.

There was a bunny there.

"Just doing my job" says Socks.

Not Hansel, not Gretel

"Nibble, nibble, Mouskin, who's nibbling at my housekin?"

Wait a minute - my house isn't made of gingerbread. So why are you eating it, Chipmunk?

After the storm

"Wet?" says Doe. "Of course I'm wet." "You don't see any umbrellas out here, do you?"

'shroom time

Yes, it is finally mushroom time! Warmish days, a little rain -

fungus are popping up all over.

This one looks like caramel, but I'm not going to eat it.

I'm waiting for the morels.

Spring Cleaning

Brrr. It's a chilly early Spring day out there even though there's some sunshine.

What is that blur in the water outside the window? Song Sparrow having a spring bath.

It's awfully cold to be in the water, isn't it?

Just watch him flutter and splash - he's serious about this getting clean.

Every time I think he's done, he jumps back in.

I guess the lady Song Sparrow will appreciate his well-washed feathers!

Too cold for frogs

It must be Spring. There's the Red-shouldered Hawk perched above the pond. Puffed up in the chilly morning air. Waiting for frogs. Last year there were frogs about now.
While Hawk waits in the cold for a frog, someone is trying to hold very still.
Can you spot Squirrel on the trunk of the tree?
Hawk doesn't see him.

Wait! Hawk does spy something moving down there.
That looks like a BIG meal!

Socks! You'd better come home NOW!

Big Bird?

It is supposed to be a bird bath.

Who is lapping up water?Lapping? Birds don't LAP water.

That pink tongue belongs to Doe.
I suppose the sparrows won't mind if you have a little drink.
