Sights from around Crooked Acres.
The crane (?) Great Blue Heron who’s been hanging around the pond. Fred calls him Harold.
I got a little too close, and off he flew.
George was too busy snoozing in a pile of leaves to worry about any ol’ crane.
Ducks, keeping an eye on me.
This helicopter flew overhead while I was out taking pictures. “Air Evac Lifeteam” is what it says on the side.
One of the boy ducks, gettin’ flappy. I love the flash of purple on his wing.
Boy ducks, on the move.
On cold days, the chickens prefer to hang out in the coop.
Fred opens the door to the coop, to let the sun shine in and the coop air out.
Gracie’s stone by the coop. See anything else of interest?
Judging by the lack of concern by the chickens and George, Archie must do this pretty regularly.
Squirrel on the tree in the back yard, eating a pecan.
Mourning Doves in the same tree, giving me attitude.
Icy Hydrangea. (I’d show you pictures of the snow we got, but it wasn’t much more than a dusting, so I didn’t bother to take any pictures.)
Mourning Dove on the fence.
We hired someone to come out and do some repairs and paint the tractor shed/workshop. It looks much better, but BOY is that one crooked building.

Such a pretty girl.
She loves to sit and look out the window. I can’t get her interested in that wall bed. I even took half the teddy bears out, and she still refuses to go into it. Always ruining my good photo ideas, Koko! Hmph.

Video! In case you wondered what Koko sounds like, here you go.

Dennis, waiting for a kiss. Is he the most gorgeous boy, or what? All my cats have such pretty eyes!
