Adventuring has taken place around home the past few days....but there were adventures nonetheless.
The dreaded pig bear was spotted sauntering through the gap in the fence around the long lawn and partaking of its favorite spring prey. Later, as the season progresses, it will change its diet from the native grasses and herbs to the green beans in the garden, thus the dreaded part of the equation.
The vest was soon shed...it was quite warm |
And grandma was taken on a nature walk by the home school girl, who has also been involved in the construction of an elaborate blanket fort in the dining room...wish I had taken a photo....
Note pink purse for outward bound water bottle and pop tarts and homeward bound rocks of good color, size, and style |
Bright green beetles were seen on the walk, powder blue butterflies abounded, a Red-tailed Hawk was enjoyed, and a number of good rocks were acquired.
A good time was had by all. I am kinda missing our peripatetic birding style though.
Female Baltimore Oriole I wonder if she is building a blanket fort with that milkweed fluff... |
