#Pearly likes to come out while I'm working outside, usually lounging around on the open porch or on the grass just below the steps. She also likes to go (not far) to the wood storage area when I'm working there. Here's a short vid of her eating grass

Seems I'm always stopping work to move some little #critters out of harm's way! (at least until the deep cold arrives!) This time it was a cute little #Ladybug when I was cutting firewood in the bush #Alberta #insects #Countryliving 🌿

This woodpecker has been visiting the apple-crabs- It flies in with a great cackling noise, settles on the tree to peck at apples for a while, then flies off to season its meal with its regular fare-insects.
