The summer is starting off very busy, and not just for us,
but for our resident critters.
They are all looking happy and healthy.
And we have babies. :)))
Wee baby House Wrens
"Welcome little one. Please don't eat me out of house and home."
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
He's learning and she is somewhat patient. :-b
We adore him.
Our Bug Bed and Breakfast has a family of ants, so far. lol
And the retired guy took a break from the house on the weekend to move the dirt to the back of the property and build a berm.
We will someday landscape it with trees and perennials
but not this year.
I couldn't look at the pile of dirt behind the house another minute.
For now it will just protect us from invading tanks, if any show up.
The fabulous fifty, free-range lovely ladies across the road are still providing us with wonderful farm eggs every week.
Now that's fresh. :))
One went into this delicious rhubarb cake last week. I found the rhubarb along our fence. :) The plant may be as old as I am. imagine!
Next time I will try peaches.
I hope you are having a fun and busy summer, too.
I must get around to say "hi"
Be kind,
Deb
Oh Deb, how funny! I thought you would get a kick out of that definition of berm! Everything looks so wonderful with all the animals and babies and such. And it warms my heart to no end to see Annie and Wilson curled up together! Enjoy this wonderful summer!
ReplyDeleteI'll promise we won't invade except I don't trust our president for a minute. May I emigrate? I can clean litter boxes and plant things for you. Honestly, every day it is worse and worse here.
ReplyDeleteYour world, however, is looking wonderful with sweet bed-sharing cats, patriotic bunnies and sweet baby birds. I'm hoping Wrennie has something in her birdhouse she keeps entering. There's certainly lots of nesting material and something white but I've not yet see other signs of life apart from her entrances, which aren't as frequent as I wish. I can't get it on camera. Yet. Loving your world!
Oh, that photo of Annie and Wilson gives my heart a lift today. I am glad that they are finding their way into a nice relationship. They both look so cute in the photo.
ReplyDeleteNutmeg! Wonderful. We have one tiny bunny here at our country home this summer, too. : )
Your summer sounds wonderful. I am glad for all...
Happy Smiles,
Lily
Nutmeg is a good name for a rabbit!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing all your 'critters'!! Annie and Wilson are so sweet together. A busy summer and it's not quite July! We are having so much rain and yet it's hot enough to melt!!
ReplyDeleteAounda like things are going along well i these early days of Summer.
ReplyDeleteHope they continue to do so!!
Nancy and the kitties
Awww, Annie and Wilson are so cute!
ReplyDeleteGlad all your critters (and their babies) are enjoying the summer! Annie looks like Wilson is 'trying' her patience.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen such unbelievably cute little critters. Of course, they find your place. Word must have spread quickly to Nutmeg. That's the perfect name! How sweet to see Annie and Wilson snuggled together. Don't know why the name Wilson makes me smile, and The Wilson Box does too. Well I've never seen a Bug Bed and Breakfast, but it sounds useful. :)
ReplyDeleteThe nut teh squirrel is holding is as big as a watermelon would be to us. Now, that's dinner! It's pleasing to see Wilson and Annie snoozing together. She is indeed a good mother-cat.
ReplyDeleteIs that Simon? He is so adorable, as are the wren babies, Nutmeg, and those sweet kitties. Your life in the garden is burgeoning daily by looks of it Deb.
ReplyDeleteWe're on our way to Maine and hope to have a little time in your lovely Canadian Maritimes!

ReplyDeleteEverything looks fun and wonderful. All the little animals look so adorable in all of the photos. This really looks like a stress-free place. Those eggs I bet taste delicious. Thanks for the share. Have a great day.

So happy to see the two fur kids cuddled up together. We are trying the Feliway Friends for our two - plugged it in today as they get their nails done on Saturday - a test run to see if it makes a difference to their stress with each other for when they have their check up in August. Tank invasion (col) well it could be worse with a Zombie attack ... Nutmeg is a lovely addition to the tribe. ... Mary-Lou =^..^=
ReplyDeleteglad to see Annie accepting Wilson; what a smoocher
ReplyDeletefresh eggs are the best! i couldn't be without my chooks
tanks, lol, what is a berm?

thanx for sharing
Your photos are marvelous, just delightful! I’m so happy to see Annie and Wilson have taken to each other. Their developing friendship will be a treat for them both.
ReplyDeleteLove your blog and what beautiful pics and sweet, sweet little critters. I have had a pet sitting service for many, many years and love it. Cats, dogs, turtles, guinea pigs, fish and horses. Anything .but snakes. lol Of couree, I share my home with cats and dogs and my little plot of land with more cats, birds, bunnies, Hawks and Horned Toads. Enjoy reading your blog.
ReplyDeleteI do believe that Wilson and Annie are touching??!! So nice to see! Enjoy your fresh-from-the-farm eggs! When we had chickens, the yolks were almost orange and not the pale yellow you get from store bought eggs. I miss those!
ReplyDeleteLove the baby birds, and of course ANnie and Wilson. Wonderful to see them cuddling!! Isn't he an amazing cat? I am so grateful that he was saved from being a feed-mill stray.
ReplyDeleteAnd your baking pictures always make me drool!
I love that photo of Annie and Wilson ♥
