Hello!

One of the new baby cottontails born this spring in our yard. You can tell it's only a few months old by the tiny smudge of white fur left on the top if its head.

Ducklings


Of the seven eggs laid on our boat slip, four ducklings made it. Here they are swimming with their mother (photo taken July 6th, two days after hatching)!

Duck Eggs in My Flower Box

The nest is near a walkway so I will do my best to keep it from being disturbed.

Stay tuned...

Poor thing panicked when I came upon her. If you look closely you can see she still has fresh grass in her mouth.
