Sights from around Crooked Acres.
Look right of center – that’s a Kestrel in the Poltergeist tree, looking down into the back yard.
He sat there for the longest time, looking around, and only took off when I went into the back yard to get a better picture. (If I’m wrong about that being a Kestrel, hopefully someone will let me know!)
Squirrel yoga.
I know they’re pests and rodents and I should curse the earth their little feet scurry around on, but I can’t help it – I think they’re ADORABLE. The ears! The tail! The toeses!
Grackle on the feeding station.
Girlies doin’ their thing.
The Angry Muppet had already put herself to bed (it was about dusk), and had to come out to see if we were offering scratch. We were, of course – we always do!
Cruella. Isn’t she fabulous?
Carla Mae would like to know just what you think you’re doing.
The rooster, keeping an eye on things.
Ducks on the pond. Notice he’s got his beak open. Yap-yap-yap, that one. He’s a chatty man.
Posers.
I think this hen is particularly pretty.
Good night, girls (and boy).
Sure do miss those pups.
Blue coop.
Moonrise.
