A few of our visitors.
A previous bather splashed the camera lens before this guy arrived:

@rustyfingers I change the water twice a day.

I had to go out to close the shed door which I'd left open this afternoon and, more importantly, fetch the bottle of wine that I left in the car from shopping yesterday. Flipped on the lights for the deck and there were three raccoons cautiously edging their way towards the bird feeding area. Aw. I interrupted their supper. I made sure to shut the lights as soon as I got back in so they can have a nosh.

choochiefingers and I had a day trip to Rockport, MA for an independent bookstore scavenger hunt. We had lunch at a restaurant with a view and were treated to the antics of this family of female and juvenile wood ducks.

Back to pix from the wildlife refuge--I think this little guy is a swamp sparrow. New to me.

The world has gone mad. I was sitting on the deck spinning this morning and I kept hearing a pecking sound coming from the driveway. Eventually, I realized it was abnormal and looked over to see a couple turkeys pecking at my car tires and front grille. Why in the world would they be doing that? I went over and shooshed them into the forest.
I just went out to put food in the bird feeders and they're at it again!
I would have thought the behavior was food driven but there's no food in the car. Is this retaliation for shooshing them from the bird feeders? Are there any animal psychologists in the house?

Cosmo - our new stray kitten. About 12 weeks old. We've been feeding her and now she's living under our deck. She's already let me pet her and is rubbing around our legs, so the bonding is taking place. We'll be a three cat house. I just can't stand to leave a little one like that out in the wild.

What fresh hell is this?

I tried to look at this earlier today and it said there was a technical problem. I just tried again (7 hours later) and the problem persists.
I want to see your new cat!!
