Babies everywhere
We have lots of babies in the garden at the moment from chipmunks, rabbits and squirrels to various birds. It is fun watching them find their way around and copy the adults. The only trouble is there are now many more creatures in the garden which leads to more fights.
Here is our tame chipmunk chilling out on his favorite spot – the corner of our deck. He sits here when he gets up in the morning. He starts off silent, just chilling then starts his “chipping” chant which can last a long time and can get annoying. If we tap on the window he will sometimes just ignore us, but other times he will leap up to the windowsill and watch us through the window, almost begging for a peanut.
This baby squirrel who was really small and could easily have fitted into my quite small hand with room to spare was sitting on our windowsill yesterday morning.
He stayed there for quite some time and was not the least bit concerned with us cooing and photographing him through the window.
The baby birds are also about and there are currently a lot of blue jays who have yet to develop head feathers – as you can see.
They all look a bit prehistoric at the moment!
