Today was a perfectly.....icky day for a nature walk around our home.
It rained most of the weekend.
But some days, I feel like I have spent too much time cooped up indoors.
Too much time breathing hospital air, then closed up in the bedroom sleeping.
I literally crave the fresh air and feel as if I must go out and soak it in.

| Wellies are a must. These are not REAL Wellies, of course. What would you call them? "Alrighties"? "Good Enough-ies"? Anyway.... |
 |
| Mud, mud, everywhere. |
 |
| Also everywhere are blackberry bushes! I can't WAIT till they produce yummy berries. |
 |
| I mean seriously, EVERYWHERE. Bumper crop. I can almost smell the cobblers already. |
 |
| The moon was peeking over the trees. |
 |
| She cranks, she cranks, she cranks my Tractor |
 |
| Rusty |
And now, a few shots of the various wildlife that appears right outside of our back door.
Most of these were taken with Byron's motion-sensor camera.
 |
| Male wild turkey |
 |
| deer and female wild turkey |
 |
| very alert deer |
 |
| I took this picture from my kitchen window. Byron puts corn out every day for the deer and other wildlife to eat. This raccoon on the left literally filled his belly for about forty minutes, and on the right is a female wild turkey (hen) who joined him for much of that time. |
Hope you had a great weekend!
