Awww Monday: This little light of mine


 Hostess Sandee at Comedy Plus 

Thank you

 

When we visited our friends in early September, we had a surprise waiting for us.

This little solar power fairy light globe.

Here it is in day light




All below taken 7:03 pm.   Each evening it lights up the back. I am positive the critters of the night are as enchanted by this little light as I am.  

It surely makes me say

AWWW

Darker photos taken with my iPad, lighter ones with my iPhone.  It usually stays on til about

10 pm.

Sunday Tale of Tails

 October 19, 2010 


This is my new favorite flop spot.....I pick a new spot every few weeks. Variety is the
spice of life
Right smack dab in the middle of a high traffic area...
I'm thinking of putting up a sign saying:
"Cat sleeping...please detour"

Symmetry Saturday with turtles

Janice my very dear friend and photo journalist sent me this photo and
challenge me to make a poem 


On Symmetry Saturday My  mind's eye saw so much symmetry


Seven turtles all in a row
You have a perfectly symmetrical line
My mind's eye wonders if you are out for stroll or
Maybe a nice sun bath on that perfect log
Exceptional balance 
Turtle love
Reptile family
You slowly meander with care so no one slips.

Nature Friday and Feline Friday Flashack

 One of our hosts for Nature Friday host LLB Gang   

There are 11 houses on my cul-de-sac.  Many years ago one of our techie neighbors set up a

Cowden Court Chat Text. Recently, I received this text from Jennifer:

"This hawk might be why the birds aren't visiting our feeders"


I replied:  I agree and it might be why the hummingbirds flew south earlier than usual.
I keep a birding log.  I always have hummingbirds til at least early October.  I haven't seen one since September 26th. 2024 my last sighting was 8 am October 8th.  I noted that the temperature on the evening of Oct 7th was 43.  

Jennifer replied: That her husband hasn't seen a hummingbird is some time.


Another neighbor replied:
The hawk is now hiding in the tree in your front yard.

Can you see him on the lowest branch on the left

My next door neighbor took this video from her patio door




For the record I will say, our cul-de-sac has an over population of Chipmunks and Squirrels
If a hawk is patient they will come to him. As you can tell from the first photo of the hawk, it has not missed a meal in a long time.
