Your sumacs look lovely to sit under on a hot day. I'll bet they are beautiful in the fall. Too funny seeing the chipmunk. the Jays are so pretty! I had to move my feeder well away from the house and sometimes have to stop filling it because of marauders. I've had bear, raccoons, possums and also cougars and coyotes after the raccoons and possums! I am always cautious approaching it. One year I had a whole flock of crows coming every day. My goodness, so many hungry wild things! I even tried putting the feeder on the deck, but that was a disaster - mice were attracted and getting into the house. So, it is always an adventure with the wild things! Be careful! xx KKaren @ Beatrice Euphemiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08631972741518142563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-53027249436879599702016-07-29T14:01:54.521-04:002016-07-29T14:01:54.521-04:00It's been way too hot here, too.

Simon's full to bursting cheek pouches are adorable!:D<br /><br />Deb, I was wondering if you could suggest some easily digestible cat food for an older kitty (eleven years old). We had to change her diet after Innova Evo was no longer being brought into Canada and I am having a tough time finding something that she likes. Any insights would be very much appreciated. I hear chicken isn't good for older cats..then I hear fish irritates sensitive tummies... email:limbyloo700@gmail.com<br /><br />Thanks in advance for your insights!<br /><br />Sophie and the critters in the cottage xo<br />LPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10155758130142563205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6305853571849549221.post-79353589455436850782016-07-28T19:57:54.750-04:002016-07-28T19:57:54.750-04:00I see someone else recognized the sparrow.....and ...I see someone else recognized the sparrow.....and that old blue jay looks like my Grandpa with his hands crossed behind his back.
