It's been a relaxing weekend I must say. Yesterday, after a long first week back to work, I decided to take an impromptu drive to Rehoboth to take in some relaxation and waves. Yes, I'm dangerous like, that for my impromptu decisions….. So I packed in Buster Bolfig Borghese and off we went! More on that later. So today found me having a full English breakfast, well, huh, more like afternoon, when we arose. But I saw some of the suspects today, which all seemed to be very photogenic.
Boy, must you have that thing in my face while I eat?
The baby woodpecker is huge now.
And then lately this new resident came from the woods. A ground hog. We set up lines to where he could and could not feast. I would swear he is posing for pictures!
So busted trying to take down the stem to get that delicious flower.
And went right back to doing it anyhow.
On the fox front, two of the three have moved on I believe. I have only seen one nightly now. The fox has taken to sleeping right under the tree in front of my kitchen windows, or in the ivy bed. It's so cute to see.
IT'S GROUNDHOG DAY!
ReplyDeleteOooh, the flowers are beautiful! I love the ground hog pictures. I wonder how much wood he would chuck if he could chuck wood :) Great photos, as usual.
ReplyDeleteIt's like a Disney movie up in there!
ReplyDeleteHe looks very well fed! I'm surprised you're able to have a garden at all on the grounds. Great pictures, I love the delphiniums too, my favorite.
ReplyDeleteThe bird pictures are cute, but the gourd hog... bleedin rascal, you did make me laugh though.
ReplyDeleteOh, a groundhog! Yes, he's a cutie, but ... "Nooooo, ..." Loved this post with the suspects.
ReplyDeleteGroundhogs chewing up your garden? Those foxes aren't doing their job properly..! Jx
ReplyDeleteThis post made my day! Thanks for the laugh! And the flowers are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteLoves them all!
ReplyDeleteOhhh I'm loving this post so hard!

Pretty birds, fuzzy critter
ReplyDeleteThose doves pictures are amazingly detailed!
ReplyDeleteI actually think groundhogs are cute - just rather devilish in the garden! I look forward to your beach day.
ReplyDeleteNot only do you attract wild men, but animals too. I have experience with one of those, right sixpence notthewiser? 😉
ReplyDeletedetails details!
DeleteThis was so funny! You KNEW he wasn't going to keep his end of the deal, right? He's part politician! Those ground hogs are shifty.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen a groundhog in a long time. I use to see them along side the road in ditches and they would poke their head up as cars pass by. Of course I say that when they aren't eating my garden. Great captures of the birds too.
ReplyDeleteAwesome shots! Lively birds and a lovely groundhog! That's awesome one fox decided to stay and be comfortable enough to be near your place. That groundhog better watch out for the fox!
ReplyDeleteI love these pix! Uf, groundhogs! We thought they were so adorable until devoured entire gardens! Also, they don’t always chomp the stems to get to the flowers. Sometimes they just chomp the stems to mark their territory. Little fuckers destroyed one flower bed and didn’t eat a single flower, simply one bite to each stem... just before the buds opened!
ReplyDeleteThese posts always manage to crack me up. But what close ups on the doves.
ReplyDeleteI love the doves. Such gentile birds. They sure love there photos taken. Those flowers are gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely weekend. May your week be easy and swift! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteI think the groundhog saw his shadow. That means we only get to hear about Kavanaugh for another six days, right?
