Good morning everyone! It is another one of those cold mornings here. A good morning to be inside with a cup of hot coffee and looking outside. Unless you’re like me. Then looking outside isn’t so great either. Actually I don’t mind looking out…

Muffin enjoying a snooze.

Muffin waiting for chipmunk.

Daylilies from my landlord’s garden, she hates them. A very old variety.

Heading to McLeod Park, no relation to me, looking back at the CPR bridge and an old tug boat.

Entering the main part of the park with Husky the Musky in view, he is 50 this year.

The park’s fountain.

Muffin escapes the safety of the apartment while chasing a chipmunk.

Coaxing Muffin back indoors hours later. It took quite a while. Sigh.

Enjoying an autumn sunset from my deck.

Major is back and bigger than ever.

He just can’t believe that spring turned into this.

Muffin is starting to fall asleep on what she thinks is her rug.

Major likes to stop in and say hi whenever he is in the neighborhood.

Talk about a nice smile.

You have heard me talk about him, here he is, Chuck, my summer crow.

Here’s Squirk, not really as fat as he looks!

Sir George, ready for take-off. He is one big, beautiful bird.

A white-throated sparrow whose whistle song I enjoy each morning.

Chipping sparrows are very friendly and one of my favorite little summer birds.

Poor mama Squick, she has had a rough day with her little ones.

Muffin waking up from her late morning nap.

Skamper filling his cheeks with peanuts while on my knee.

Rock doves enjoying their evening snack.

This is Checker, my newest little chipmunk friend.

An early morning look at the moon.

“Hmm, breakfast to go, just the way I like it,” says Mr. Blue Jay.

A partial view of beautiful Lake of the Woods.

Sir George, now gone until next April.

A nice fat bee covered with pollen.

Just one of many varieties of dragonflies we have.

Another of our dragonflies.

This is Whitey, a brother to LB.

Chipper, my favorite squirrel, chased away by LB.

Beautiful Lake of the Woods, not far from where I live, though I can’t see it from my apartment.

This is Baxter, my friendliest blue jay and also seems to enjoy posing for pics.

Sir George on his favorite perch atop a hydro pole, calling to one of his friends.

A female hairy woodpecker picking up some sunflower seeds to take back to her young ones.

Mama Chip taking a rest on a hot day.

A red-breasted nuthatch picking up lunch on my hand one fall day.

Patches enjoying a snack.

Red-breasted nuthatch in for lunch.

Gray jay trying hard to hide on a cold December day.

A female pine grosbeak feasting on berries.

A male pine grosbeak also feasting on some berries on a cold December day.

Big blue is keeping his feet warm on a rather chilly day in December.

This little chickadee just finished a sunflower seed and is ready for more.

This gray jay was just hangin around for a while.

This hairy woodpecker is an oddity, he has an orange spot on this side and a red spot on the other side of his head.

One of our local flock of Canada geese that visit our lakeside park each summer.

One of many dozens of bees that visit my landlords flower gardens. Sometimes they don’t like such close attention and let me know!

Muffin trying to enjoy a nap on my bed.
