I'm loving these cooler nights! Although it is heading for 85 degrees today, it doesn't matter because the days are shorter and the nights are crisp and cool and it's a whole lot better sleeping weather. Not that I sleep any better but..Ha!
It's been quiet and I don't really have anything to report, as far as family goes.
The mama deer and the three fawns have been around the past few days. I hadn't seen them in almost a week. The fawns have lost all their spots and they are growing their winter coat. They sure look different so fast! I can see the mom's longer hair on her. The fawns are very curious and they still run and jump and are very cute to watch.
I've gotten a couple good photos of the fox pup too. There are two. They don't come out together though but they have different faces so now I can tell the difference. Sure is hard to get close ups. They tend to get up on the wall now and look down. I haven't seen the mom to the pups so am a little concerned about her. The dad is always out early every morning.
I heard chain saws in the woods. There goes some more of the critter's homes that they have been so busy working on for the winter. It always bothers me when I hear that noise. There's so many people that don't give a shit about God's little animals. They all have a right to live here on earth too!
I've been out a couple times in the past week. Went out Tuesday night to get groceries. Was out last Sat. morning to get critter food. I had left a bag in the trunk and forgot to get it that night. The chipmunks always know when there's a bag in there. There was a hole in it already. I always leave a small bunch for them in the trunk. I don't care. They are hoarding for the winter so I figure I might as well have the front yard ones have some too..Ha! Ha!
One of our old original tenants here in the building moved out Sunday to go live with her daughter. She's 86 and getting forgetful and falling so it's the best. I don't know how she will get along with her daughter though. I'm thinking it won't be long before they have to put her in Folts Home or something. It's hell to get old.
I haven't heard anything from Nina this week so don't know what is going on with the new job she might get in Albany. I sure hope it goes well for her. She deserves it after all the hard work she's done. I should add her history here so you all can see how many jobs she's had since high school and how far she's come.
Well. I guess I better get my birds up.
Take care everyone.
