Dove Day

Mourning Doves

On a wire...

...on the ground...

 ...in a puddle...

...and on the roof.

Woodpeckers Again

Mr. Red-headed woodpecker brought along a friend yesterday.

Almost every time I walk around The Rez, I see this guy. He likes to tease me into thinking he will allow a really close-up shot, but he never does. At least this time I had a nice background.

At least he brought along his friend, Mr. Downy Woodpecker.

He was very busy pecking a hole in this tree.

Mr. Downy brought Mrs. Downy along for a visit. How can I be sure this is the Mrs? She doesn't have red on her head. She wouldn't turn around to look at me. Guess she is a shy one.

Happy Monday!

Guard Dog

I'm always trying to figure out Fingley's origins. We know his mother is a full blood Border Collie, but the father is unknown. His bark sounds totally different from a Fergus bark. Personally, I think Findley's pop is a Corgi. So I pulled up YouTube and typed in 'Corgi bark'. This is what happened when Findley heard it.

My brave protector!

More Ducks

Yesterday the ducks were back, both earlier in the day and in the evening.

 Morning light.

Evening light. My what a difference a day makes. 

During my morning walk, I finally got a Flicker pic. The lighting wasn't very good and Findley was dragging me along by the leash, so this is the best I could do.

 I chased Mr. Redhead around for a while, but he wasn't in the mood to let me get more than one poor shot.

And this is a female cardinale. Really. It is!

Happy 4th!

Odds and Ends

Still haven't been out to take more pics, So I'm posting more from a few days ago. I rested yesterday. Seems I have been doing a bit much and Ms. Knee made me take a day of rest. Much better today. 

The view from the scummy side of The Rez. I liked the pink flowers peeking through all that green.

 Queen Anne's Lace.

Unidentified lavender flowers.

With all the budget cuts in our state, I'm happy to see a new fence being built around the chicken coup at Lincoln Log Cabin.

That's all folks! Happy Wednesday!
