Animal Antics

The goldenrod is in full, glorious bloom now, and I've made few new plant discoveries on our property this week. I was going to do a post on that today, but now it's late and I need to go do chores! So, here's a little animal humor instead. My sister's bird feeder has been attracting more squirrels and chipmunks than songbirds for some reason, and I love this picture she took of the squirrel! It looks to me like an illustration from a Beatrix Potter story!

And I thought you all might enjoy this as well! All but one of the puppies went to their new homes this weekend. I'll have him the rest of the week, and he's getting spoiled! I played my accordion for him this morning, and he sang along! :D 
Hopefully I'll be back with another plant related post in the next few days as things finally settle down to something like normal again! :)

Love your playing and your pup. He looks just like the calender pup behind you. He doesn't know what to think of all that.

Thank you :) He is such a sweet puppy, and we did see the resemblance to the puppy on the calendar! I think he liked it at first, but then got a little jealous because it took up my whole lap! :D

SO cute! You play very well. :) Too bad puppies grow up so fast, gone in a jiffy. At least you're sending some awesome love out into the world. <3

They do grow up fast! I don't know how I'm going to let this little guy go. It's always hard, but especially when I have one that stays a while longer so I spend a lot of one on one time with them. He even sleeps with me!

Oh nice! It is such a fun instrument, and I don't know too many people who do play it! :)

He wants to sing along! None of our goldenrods are blooming just yet, in fact they don't even look close.

Wow, that's interesting! So your climate is ahead of ours yet the late season bloomers come later there!
