Word of the Day Challenge – Energetic

….thanks to Word of the Day for hosting this challenge

What’s more energetic than a 1 1/2 year old puppy? Maybe a 2 1/2 year old toddler.

My Backyard Visitor

….we’ve either got a lot of rabbits in the neighbourhood or this little fellow gets around

They’re so cute but our garden is suffering. We’ve caught this little guy in the lettuce patch, nibbling the kale and completely destroying the bush beans at the back of the yard.

The one plant that he hasn’t destroyed is the yellow bean plant.

Roda’s Critter Connection – Chipmunk

….thanks to Roda for hosting the The Critter Connection

This past weekend I finally went to the cottage to open it up. I kept my camera close at all times in hopes of catching a glimpse of some wildlife. I did manage to capture a chipmunk running through the lot. Sometimes they come right up to your feet but this one stayed pretty far off. Thank goodness for my telephoto lens.

Three Bunnies

…..one real, one garden variety and one drawn

I came across the real bunny this week on one of my walks. It was one of those moments when I wished I had brought my good camera with the zoom lens. The second bunny is a ceramic garden figure and the third bunny is a drawing that my husband drew for our granddaughter.IMG_1956fullsizeoutput_6eb3
