looks like fall

the calendar says it’s fall and the yard says it’s fall, but i think mother nature forgot to turn the page on her calendar because the weather is still summer! hopefully she will notice the date and act accordingly.

AGAIN #WildlifeWednesday

what has this guy been up to lately? well...


he has found his way up to the bird feeder, AGAIN!


look how high off the ground it is! we were sure he couldn’t reach it here. we were wrong.


we saw him do it. first he jumped on the faucet, then he just climbed right up the wall (like a lizard) and onto the wall planter! who knew squirrels could climb a wall! i guess we have to move the feeder, AGAIN.

bailey’s terrible day

oh dear. yesterday was terrible for bailey. just look at the panic on her face! what in the world could have gotten bailey in such a tizzy?


a fly.


yes, a fly. she goes into a panic attack whenever a fly makes it’s way into our house. i kill them within moments but the damage is done. we tried everything to distract her and to help her shake this feeling but our efforts were in vain. she was like this for hours.


do you have a fur baby that goes into panic attacks? what causes them and what do you do to help them through it?

up in a tree #ThrowbackThursday

there are a lot of words i can use to describe bailey but adventurous is definitely not one of them. but back in 2011, she was fearless and thought nothing about being put up in a tree.

40 winks wednesday

yesterday as bailey was catching 40 winks, i noticed something very unusual. well, unusual for bailey. do you see it?


she was napping with her paws crossed, on 9/11. i know many dogs cross their paws regularly, my grand doggie does it all the time, but bailey doesn’t. for her to cross them yesterday, of all days, was beautiful.

we are trying to train her in the shopping cart. we padded it with her blankies and gave her tiny pieces of her favorite treat every time she sat down. she was a good girl and did very well.

camo on camo

i think bailey saw me gathering her shampoo and towel because she tucked herself under her camouflage afghan. she probably thinks i can’t see her because she is wearing a camouflage shirt. BOL

furry & feathered friends #WildlifeWednesday

these are just some of the feathered friends that visited us monday morning.

black phoebe

male house finch

female house finches

scrub jay

and then there were these guys. we had three squirrels running a muck around our yard. (i would chase them away after i took the pictures but they’re kinda like a boomerang cuz they keep coming back! BOL)

eating the bird’s apple

chilling in my tree

this one’s getting ready to jump up to the bird feeder

they are usually up in the trees or walking on the wall but this guy came down to the lawn!


we even had a CAT visit!!! say what!?

bailey is usually pretty chill when it comes to squirrels around the yard but even she has had enough!


i hope you enjoyed seeing our backyard wildlife as much as i enjoyed sharing it with you.
