and
Saturday's Critters hosted by Eileen (Viewing Nature With Eileen.)
First up some happy but wet ducks sitting in our parking strip yesterday during a rain shower. (Yes I know we need to mow).
Next a very sleepy and relaxed kitty. This is our Spooky-boo taking a siesta in his favorite chair.
How about a funny little squirrel enjoying a peanut. Be sure to check out the last photo today for a BIG surprise!

While out and about yesterday taking some photos I spotted this sweet little kitty in someone's yard and stopped to take it's picture.
Finally I was driving by on my way to the grocery store and I spotted the biggest Squirrel I've ever seen in my life. I pulled over right away and quickly grabbed my camera and got out being extra careful not to scare this squirrel but it was busy eating a nut so it didn't pay much attention to me. Whew because seriously with a squirrel this huge you wouldn't want to make it angry!
Wait for it......
"Gottcha!" - A woodcarving in someone's yard. They made good use of an old tree that they cut down.
HI I Love the Mallards sitting in the rain and that last shot is great. Thy certainly have made good use of the wood. Have a wonderful weekend.

ReplyDeleteAll wonderful critters! Love the ducks and sleepy kitty. Had to smile at your giant squirrel.
ReplyDeleteHa! You got me on that one! It needs to stop raining long enough to mow. The ducks don't seem to mind.
ReplyDeleteHa! Yep, you got me, too! Great set of critters.
