Sir Blepalot has strong opinions about getting his picture taken!

Mind you, this is another one where he is probably a she. ;-)

This visitor seems to be a touch confused about something.

Probably wondering what one of our silly cats is doing. :-D

Another deer photo from our bitterly cold February.

This was taken on a day when it was warm enough to snow, covering the feed I had put out in the morning. A bit of snow isn’t about to stop a hungry deer!

This next batch of critter photos are still from February. We had quite a few deer visits, including some new ones.

This was taken on a day when we had 7 deer show up at once. There seemed to be two groups of three, and one loner. A couple were quite aggressive about chasing the others away from the feed. As you can see by this tough guy (actually… it’s probably a gal), and the patch of skin dangling from its chin!

Critter of the Day: what a crowd!

A couple more bird pictures from February.

Some days, we would get huge crowds of birds, all at once. They’d fly in and out, en masse.

When I was taking these, it was all redpolls and pine grosbeaks. There were so many, they seemed to have driven away the chickadees and blue jays. For a while, at least.
