Oh-oh I'm in trouble with the Jays. I dumped the soggy leaves out of the water dish but forgot to refill it. I'll try to do better next time.

Latest news in the Acorn Chronicles:
I found some acorns when I was out walking. Brought them home and put out a couple for squirrel.
This morning #BlueJay showed up to say 👋 and managed to fit one in his beak and carry it off. They are really hard. I hope Jay can crack the shell.

A pair of #coyotes trotted through the yard. Mated pairs often hunt together to support the family group and raise pups, but recent coyote sightings in the yard have been solo. It's a treat to see these fine looking animals.

Looks like a young #redFox. Haven't seen one around in a few months. But there have been more bunnies around recently. Correlation or causation?

Tuesday it rained ALL day! That 'never' happens in Colorado. But the #Raccoon family was happy to get out after the rain grubbing for earthworms.
Bon appétit mes amis! 🦝🦝🦝🦝🦝🪱🪱🪱🪱
4 times normal speed. I hope they're not offended but I was amused.

Delighted to see #BlueJay back for a visit. We haven't seen them in a couple of months. Hope to see you again soon.

The cleanup crew shows up after the rain to collect earthworms.
As always after a rain the sprinklers come on and little guy gets to run through the water.

This sweet little one joined us for dinner on the deck. I never get tired of watching them. Magical little birds

We don't feed the critters because it's bad for them. But it's so tempting to catch them being cute eating treats.
Found an acorn and I figured it was ok to put it out for #Squirrel. Here they are sweetly nibbling. Guess it was very filling so they had to bury the leftovers for later.

Young #Raccoon stops by to check out the yard.
Oh, don't they grow up so fast. Just a kit a few weeks ago and now they're independent and self-reliant. 🦝😍

My crittercam sometimes doesn't do the color well, but I'm excited that it finally caught a closeup of one of our hummers.
Sound WAY UP to hear little hummer chirps!! 🔊🔊
1/4 actual speed.
