Red Squirrel 09-13-26

I was being scolded by this Red Squirrel in a red pine. It must of thought I wanted the pine cone.

Raccoon... 09-12-26

On Saturday, 09-12-26, Peaches and I were out on a walk in the early evening. It was about 10 minutes before sunset and we were a few minutes from my vehicle when I spotted a large object in an Oak tree that I thought could possibly be an Owl. I watched the outline of the object as we walked closer but didn’t see any noticeable movement so I knew it wasn’t an owl. We kept walking when I finally saw it was a raccoon. It was several feet higher up in the tree than these photos show. We walked back to get my camera, then headed back to the raccoon. Now I could see it was headed down the tree when I lost sight of it. I walked around the tree in the disappearing light looking for it. When I first saw it again I only could see the backside of its body, so I walked around the tree looking for its head / face. The first photo it’s hiding its face. I got the shot before walking away from the tree pretending to leave. When I walked back to the tree it had moved slightly exposing its face.

Something different...

I lke the first picture better...

Peaches and White Pelicans 09-10-26

The migration is on for the American White Pelican. I saw hundreds of them doing their flap and soar riding the thermals this morning. Peaches wasn’t interested as she was busy destroying the wild flowers. She also didn’t want to look at the camera this morning for her picture because there was a deer right behind her.
