Dearest Auntie HiC
Dad & I were taking our regularly scheduled early afternoon nap, when I heard Mom.
I gave her the “stink eye”, she quickly retreated, and napping resumed. 😹
Lovingly your calico Niece
❤️ Cali
Dearest Cali the nerve of mom to interrupt your special time with your Dad. Yay you for the purrfect stink eye.
Auntie approves

NATURE Friday
Extra special Nature Friday from a friend via email she said:
"bad pic of a gen-u-wine Red Headed Woodpecker! I wanted to give you first crack at it if you want it."
I replied OMCs yes indeedy I would love to use this on Nature Friday. It has been eons since I saw a gen-u-wine Red Headed woodpecker. The little jewel is smack in the middle of the photo on a limb.
Thank you my dear and thoughtful friends C&KI

Oh my goodness look at all that pollen! We have flowering dogwood here but I've never seen them do pollen like that.
ReplyDeletePollen is the bane of my life too...here it comes from the maple, oak and walnut trees. Every once in a while we get to see a redheaded woodpecker and we see a bit more of the huge pileated woodpeckers. I'm awaiting the hummers and the indigo buntings, and the rosebreasted grosbeaks, and maybe even a towhee ot two, We have a lot of bluebirds, so there are mealworms out for them, but they refuse to go in the special feeder (starling proof), that they are in...so they are noshing on the woodpecker's peanuts, LOL!
ReplyDeleteohh let sleeping cats lie right? we love the woodpeckers... we hear them but we can not see one... invisible maybe?
ReplyDeleteHari OM
ReplyDeleteWell done to Cali for setting boundaries; the woodpecker shot is fun and definitely worth having; and ugh to the pollen. YAM xx
I think yours is more than ours this year, probably the drought here, we still have to much and I am sneezing my head off and my eyes run tears a lot
ReplyDeleteoops forgot to say I LOVE THE SLEEPING DUO... makes me smile as does the stink eye. I have so many photos of bob sleeping with one, 2 and 3 dogs on him, but no cats
ReplyDeleteCute photo of two snoozers. That stink eye soon got the mom to leave, but not before she got her photos. I am so glad we don't get pollen like that!
ReplyDeleteWe have a woodpecker that visits every day, but he prefers our fence to the trees, oh and of course the nuts and fat balls.
Cali, how is it every cat knows when the camera is out, mol. And here, I have missed my redheads all winter long. They spent the late summer and early fall here with their black headed babies, but as soon as it turned colder they took off to who knows where? I still have dozens of migrating goldfinch and keep feeding the lot at great expense, lol. And the squirrels keep eating what they glean from the ground.
ReplyDeleteMom and Bailie saw two red headed woodpeckers at Gramma's house two weeks ago. She has never seen even one there. They are beautiful. She got a photo but only had her phone and it is a bit blurry since they are constantly moving/pecking. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteOMG, everything is a ugly shade of yellow right now.
ReplyDeleteAw, Cali's lap time with her dad was so sweet. 😻
ReplyDeleteAh, pollen season. At the rate we're going here, it might be June for us this year. 🙄😆
What a treat that would be to spot that woodpecker in your yard. Such beautiful colors. Holy smokes that's a lot pollen on those cars.
ReplyDeleteThat is quite a heavy dusting of pollen! I can't figure out if we have already had it and now moving on to catkins and white floofy whatevers hanging on all our screens. It's been strange. Red-headed Woodpeckers are the jewel of the woodpeckers IMHO. We don't see them here in Southwest Florida but it doesn't mean they aren't here. So many birds we don't see. Cali and her Dad are sweet.
ReplyDeleteThat nasty yellow pollen goes everywhere!
ReplyDeletecali…ewe noe what they say bout pay bax at like 3:27 aye em in de morn when yur momz tryin ta snoozez 😺🐟💚🌸‼️
ReplyDeleteCali is so sweet napping with her dad. We have lots of woodpeckers in our yard, but we've never had a red-headed one. Good luck getting through your rough pollen season.
ReplyDeleteCali girl, you are adorable and you are a wonderful snoozing partner! Cool woodpecker and yuck on that pollen stuff!
ReplyDeleteNap with Dad ~ how special ~ and so sweet ~ hugs
ReplyDeleteHugs to you Cecilia and Angel Madi ~ xo
Wishing you good health, laughter and love in your days,

Oh I hope we see the Red headed woodpecker here soon. I love them! Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteMom could snap that same photo of our Dad many times a day, but we would be at his feet. We are too big for his lap:). Beautiful woodpecker, but they do make a lot of noise around here.
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend - we hope it is pollen-free.

What a fun post today!! Woody the Woodpecker is adorable!
ReplyDeletehugs,
Beth
PeeEss...Rosy says she totally understands Callie. She thinks the Mamas get jealous of our Daddy/Daughter time BOL
Sweet photos of Cali and her dad. Nice woodpecker shot too. XO
ReplyDeleteNice pic of the woodpecker! Our pollen is flying here too! 🤧🤧🤧
ReplyDeleteNothing worse than a nap interupted
ReplyDeleteI wish your Cat Dad many happy returns of the day! I do not consider taking time out to celebrate him to be a fail at all, but a necessity. He deserves some consideration for all his hard work, right?
ReplyDeleteAuthors probably have to do some unglamorous things but it would be nice to shadow one for a few days.
It seems you've found another excellent series, Amber and I thank you for linking up with Feline Friday!
