wildlife

I didn't take a picture of the millipede. It was crawling around under my windowsill and I scooped it into my bug-catching glass and dropped it into the sunflower bed right outside the back door. Scary-looking thing.




I didn't get a good picture of the deer. Looked up and two does were walking out of the woods to check out the garden. Mixed feelings. Don't exactly want them eating the corn but I get thrilled every time I see them.



While rushing to get a camera to take deer pix I finally identified the clatter going on in the kitchen: a blackbird with cats in pursuit. I'm getting quite good at bird catching. The cats looked disappointed though.



Lastly, the finches had swarmed the closest feeder, and since I already had camera in hand I got a shot of seven or eight of them.
