Wildlife




My mom likes to feed the squirrels in our backyard. This little one is the Mom who, oddly enough, seems to like feeding herself first before she allows her young ones to eat! The bird has been visiting me daily for weeks now. He is always alone, and I've never seen a second one. I've just learned the type of bird it is: a Townsend's Solitaire. So, he lives up to his name! What a pretty bird he is. Our 2 dogs and 6 cats love to watch the wildlife feed! lol
