Cricket and Cookies

Made cookies overnight --

     while a cricket sang from the back step.  Got his picture this morning.

Then harvested a bit of tomatoes and oregano before getting my Mom up for the day.

Lace Wing

On Buddleia

In chorus with Crickets

Male House Sparrow

Caught on "security camera" --

Raccoon

Set trap to see who had been digging at the gate -- got a healthy young raccoon back on Aug 12.  Released him that morning and haven't had any digging since.
