Tim Tim

In an earlier post, I told about our guinea pigs, Timothy and Cc. Well, we went on a trip, he was old and ill. I left a long note to the pet sitter about how he may die while we are gone. He died the day we got back. It is so sad to look at the old dead colorless guinea pig, and then look back at young pictures. He died 5/18/09.

Born, somewhere around 2005 or 2004. We got him a year or two old. His poor brother was in shock for a few days.

Tit mouse.

We had a titmouse bird fly into our house today, it was raining so we had the door open to hear the rain. We got some pictures of the bird and it flew up stairs and winded up behind the computer. It took five minutes to get it out from there. and finally sent it out a window.

We also had a German Shepard walk up on our porch a is staying the night. We will give him to the humane society this morning.

pileateds are back

Last year, this same time, I had attracted four Pileated woodpeckers. Those woodpeckers are back for the year, coming to the feeder daily. They have started later than last year, last year they started coming in march. They just started coming here in May. This is a picture of one from last year. Yesterday they came three times. I hope to see them more.

We also have a blue jay nest and all the babies have hatched and are growing their feathers.
