Just put out the bird feeder

Something is watching...


 
From my window...Northern Cardinal.
 

Last day of 2017

You can see the temperature.  Trying to feed the deer and birds through this cold stretch.

Buck up

Pretty good night when you have three different bucks come through including two at the same time.











 
You have to wonder what got their attention...

Turkey on the loose

Yesterday morning was interesting.  We know we have Wild Turkeys in the area.  Someone had posted video of them recently in our neighborhood.  We don't see them as often as deer but they are around.  Russ and I were coming home and see a turkey running up the sidewalk and eventually through yards. It finally flew between some houses and I thought that was it.

We get home and I let Russ out to "finish his business" and bounds off the deck and I see presumably the same turkey flying from our backyard (from within our fence).  It flies up into a tree a few houses away.  The pictures don't tell the story very well.  Just another day in the neighborhood...

Sunset a few evenings ago

I'm always glad when I remember my camera.  This was just a drive into Johnston but I was treated to this beautiful sight...

On our walk this morning

Russ and I were walking through a new housing development in the neighborhood that connects to Woodlawn Park and were treated to these sights...


Russell still has it

There are days Russ acts all of his almost 11 years but he can still turn it on like a pup.  Here he is the other day playing with his ball...




 
Coming in for a landing...
