Hungry squirrel

This squirrel must have been hungry. In just a matter of minutes, he had almost finished whatever he was eating. He was pigging out.

Unwelcome visitors

My husband found this little family while cleaning out a closet last night. Mama let us take a few pictures before she'd had enough and jumped at us in the box. I won't tell you how loud I screamed and how quickly I ran away. He took them outside and let them out behind the shed. Hopefully they found shelter elsewhere.

Bee balm

I tried planting bee balm this summer. It looked pretty at first but you should see it now. This picture was obviously taken early on.

August's Sturgeon Moon

Tonight's moon is actually the full moon but last night's moon sure looked like one.
