Critters

 We got this photo in a message...


"Miss this?  Come get her."

We do miss her.  She wouldn't like it here, we would have to keep her on leash! 


Just a few minutes after Far Guy filled the bird feeders the local wildlife showed up to feast.  Far Guy says there were four deer all together.   My baby brother and his bride said they watched seven deer run down the center of the lake on the ice.

Sadie would hate being leashed...true. She is missed, though! ;)

Sadie must be missing you. Deer are everywhere around here, too. :-)

Lynda said...

Those poor tick taxis have had a long winter, too and are ready for food. Glad you could accommodate them. They are pretty and somewhat elegant to view but like you all, the ticks stress me.

Sara said...

Oh yes - a little doggie love is good. But you're right, she probably wouldn't like being leashed. It sure doesn't take the wild critters long to find the bird feeders, does it? The deer can't reach our feeders right now but the turkeys are back the past couple of days.

Oh poor Sadie, she must miss you both too. But she wouldn't like being kept tied up. She's a free spirit! :-) The deer are beautiful. It's been such a long winter for them this year. I'm guessing they're pretty hungry.
Blessings,
Betsy

Happy doggie face! I bet you miss her.

Sadie has a sweet smile. This winter has been terribly harsh on the big game herds in Wyoming. Many have suffered from the cold, starvation, and exhaustion, and sadly massive numbers have died.

Sadie is hard to resist. Stay strong.

Oh, I bet you would love to see Sadie. That's a big deer! I love Hey Mikey's letter to great grandpa. That is so cute!

Sadie is being Sadie is she? What a pup.

The deer are probably to have you home. Another place to feed!

Granny Marigold said...

That sure is a big deer. You'd have to hoist the feeder up a lot higher if you didn't want the deer to reach it.

Sadie's photo is so fun. The deer are moving in. There need the snow to melt so they can find grass. I check you temps each day and you do have melting going on for sure. Our 82° F. would sure help you out.

You still have a lot of snow.

Ahhhh.....I bet she misses you as much as you miss her. I don't know what's happened to the deer here....they've disappeared. I used to see them every day and now there are none. I have a squirrel that practically "lives" in the bird feeder.

Sadie is adorable. Reminds me of my silly dog!

Great pics today! That deer looks like a big one, helping itself to your birdseed. Hope your snow mountains are slowly receding!

Lynda said...

I just noticed the beautiful chest of drawers behind Sadie. Did Jen paint it? It's beautiful.
