June 2011 Sun Flowers

Birdseed Sun Flowers

Several sun flowers sprouted from birdseed pushed off by the birds. 

A few of the sun flowers grew large enough to bloom! So pretty! 

Some had to be staked because they were so top-heavy.  

The brownish pole is the support for a platform bird feeder - squirrel proof! 

You can see where the paint's been scratched off by squirrels and raccoons trying to climb up.

June 24, 2011 - Back At Last!!!

Finally back online, I hope! 

Have had sporadic problems since April. Finally got a new modem this week, so hope to get back into regular posting.

BACK DOOR VISITOR

Opened the door to feed the outside cats and saw a little visiting box turtle! 

Put some cat food down for him/her - yummy!

Coppertone  admires the visitor! 

Note dirty water - hadn't been changed yet this morning, after the raccoons and lots of rain yesterday afternoon and evening. Just ran for my camera first!

Oh, that cat food's so good!
