So I finally had some time to get out on the trails to take some autumn photos and guess what... there is hardly any autumn out there at all! There's the odd tree with a touch of colour, but any leaves that fall onto the ground get scooped up by landscapers like they're coated in anthrax! All the bushes with berries have been cut back and all the wildflowers chopped away. Geez people, are we that allergic to a little nature!

Anyway, this photo was taken at the neighbour lake early in the morning before the sun was up in the sky. I just love me a misty morning!


As summer comes to a close, my sweet friends the Red Breasted Nuthatches have started to visit again. Much like the Chickadees, they perch outside and chirp to let me know it's time to load my hand up with treats. They sure do capture my heart!


WET GRACKLE!! HA!


I'm just so in love with the Blue Jays. Such smart and beautiful birds. We don't get many in the summer time, but hopefully I will get the chance to see more of them soon.


Still riding my Heron high! One of my favourite experiences this summer!

My best bud Crazy Karen has had a horrible summer. She has had two very serious injuries, one right after the other just after Baby Kay was born. She seems to be mostly healed up now, and although she still has a limp and she still lays down when she eats, she's smiling again and that brings joy to my heart. Stay strong little girl, I love you!!!

That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments. If you have any questions or interesting tidbits about today's wildlife, please let me know.

Hello Everyone! Today I am sharing a card for any occasion featuring  some gorgeous papers from  ScrapAndMe collection " Romantic Garden 2 ". I have also used some wood embellishment pieces from Scrapiniec. ScrapAndMe products:       Scrapiniec products:    *** Hello everyone. I would like you to meet George. The people who found George tried to do a good thing and raise him on their own. Unfortunately, poor nutrition has now left George underweight and underdeveloped. He's tiny and frail, but he sure doesn't know that! He's quite the monkey in my baby jungle gym, so I have high hopes he will grow and thrive to be a big healthy boy. George is one of the lucky ones, many of these babies don't survive the good intentions of their finders. I can't get angry with people who have such kindness in their hearts, but the biggest act of kindness you can show a baby wild animal is contact someone who knows how to look after them. If you ever need help, plea...

Hello Everyone!

ScrapAndMe products:          Scrapiniec products:    *** Yay, I finally got a little Christmas going on my patio! Anyone else got some pretty lights up yet? Last year for electricity, hoping to be solar for next year. Just some more experimenting with wood chews. I'll never buy another coloured one again. The dye was coming out and I ended up grabbing it away from him. Animal safe my ass, not unless you want your pet turning blue or orange! Lol. I've decided to make my own chew toys from now on.
