Weekly Prompts Weekend Challenge – Nearby

Posted on September 16, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…thanks to Sue W and GC for hosting Weekly Prompts https://weeklyprompts.com/2023/09/16/weekly-prompts-weekend-challenge-nearby/

I’m always amazed at how close wildlife will let you approach them before flying or waddling away. Seagulls are very use to humans but racoons shouldn’t be out in the daytime and this one certainly didn’t move one inch the whole time I took photos. I suspect that he wasn’t well, so I didn’t get too close. The bunny in our backyard is so familiar with us now that he doesn’t even freeze when he sees us.

I’m a Fan of…..Seagulls

Posted on April 17, 2023 by Mama Cormier

…except when they go after my food

Seagulls are typically known as ‘scavengers of the beach’ and can be quite a nuisance at take-out restaurants and food trucks that are close to the water. The seagulls that I love are the ones close to home where there are no lunches to steal. Sometimes people like to feed them and they can create quite a scene as they dive for food.

A Bright Idea in the Park

Posted on April 3, 2021 by Mama Cormier

….thanks to Becky B for hosting BrightSquare this month https://beckybofwinchester.com/2021/04/03/bright-square-3/

Since I missed yesterday I have two for today.

Camping in the local parks is prohibited but these girls were merely sheltering themselves from the cold wind coming off the lake. I knew there were girls in the tent from from all the chatter and giggles I heard as I walked by with my dog.
