Free Red

Guess my people have turned soft as they are giving the Red Tail's a safe haven, though it's behind bars.  

Of course I'm not sure that "Red" the squirrel is feeling that way as I swear I kept hearing him say "Please People, Protest and Free Red". Anyway I'm told that he's been moved to a nearby island.  

Some of My Friends in the Yard

Ok, so after the squirrel posting and a little negative feedback on my hunting, I'm thinking I would share some of the local animals that don't bother me and I don't bother them one bite--or I mean one bit.  

While they are here eating on high, I lurk in the bushes leaving them alone, while keeping an eye on the ground for vermin.  

Some of my friends like the Downy Woodpecker above.

                                            The American Goldfinch above.

And, of course, the Northern Cardinal.  Only a few of the some 20 or 30 visitors every day.

Squirrel Patrol

The hunt begins and there is one less squirrel in the neighborhood.  

 Services were held this weekend for the red tail.

Table Portrait

Soon to be famous artist and friend, Julia, painted a table top portrait of me.  Of course, I look a little younger since she did it from memory when she saw me a couple of years ago.  Try as I might, the table would't fit into my kennel so my people will get to enjoy it. Now if they would just hang some pictures of me on the wall.

Burt one of my dog neighbors from a house beyond the trees stops by a lot to say "Hey" barking from the hill behind our house to let my people know its time to open the door for me. 

 Catch me if you can.

After a day of being chased it's nice to just hang around the new digs.
