I was just outside in my backyard, cleaning and refilling our birdbath and watering the plants. When I was done, I got out my phone, so I could watch the birds and maybe get some photos. I was amply rewarded! The yard was full of Nuthatches, Juncos and some Chickadees, and these photos are taken …
So far, this has been an upsetting year all around. So the brief interlude at the Puyallup Fair was a welcome getaway from the the ugliness around us. We went on a weekday (last Friday), so the crowds were light, parking was plentiful, and the exhibits we wanted to see were open. First stop: 4H …
Our big suet feeder was very busy this afternoon. The chestnut-backed chickadees were fighting each other and the Northern Flicker for the two-sided feeder. Everyone got their turn. https://videopress.com/v/dZAkuzA4?resizeToParent=true&cover=true&preloadContent=metadata&useAverageColor=true

On the West side of the Channel is the Swinomish Indian Reservation, and on the West side is the picturesque town of LaConner. We go there often, as it’s only …
We have Ricochet friends who just moved from LosAngeles to Anacortes, and now that they both are up here, we scheduled lunch for yesterday, and included our other friend from Seattle. I decided to extend the lunch a couple of days, since I thought we were in need of a short break from home. Drive …

Here’s the original story from yesterday. https://twitter.com/sarcasm_scoop/status/1957606723226620404?s=46&t=AkJV8dX_RyhUKPG8uj0KNQ Above the law? The story just blew up on X and it was in my feed multiple times. So today, Catturd asked for memes. Littermates and others happily obliged. Here are some of the results. Notice who’s looking on! Who? Jackie has outdone herself! It’s gratifying to see …

So here are some real and cartoon black cats who have crossed my path lately. Of course, the most important black cat in my life is the one who rules the roost at our house, and has both Hubby and me wrapped around her furry paw. The Lady Kikyo. She is 15 years old now, …
