Saturday Critters ~ 179 ~

The squirrels and rabbits in my yard have gone mad.
Running around endlessly - chasing each other - acting like crazy animals.

Then Junior seeks refuge in "the tree"...to rest in the shade.

Then he turns his focus on me...
"do you see me here" - "I could use a few peanuts"

There is a whole family of bunnies running around...
it is imposible to get a picture of them, they are busy, busy, busy!!

Between the birds, squirrels, bunnies, chipmunks, ducks, raccoons, moles and snakes,
I feel like I live in a wildlife preserve...
right here in the burbs!

Hello Debbie!:) What a great variety of critters you have in your garden, it must be fun to watch them running around.:=) It goes without saying what I think about your top-notch photography!!! Have a fun weekend!:)

The squirrels are huge! Adorable bunnies. It would be hard to have a vegetable patch with them around.

WOW! You did the impossible.

One of the reasons I like living (just) off the river. Gives us more visitors than we'd otherwise have. Though Sissy does not like many of them. But she has lots of glass to watch them through.

Hello, having your own nature preserve is great. You do not have to travel far to see the critters. Pretty shots of Junior and the bunny!
Thank you so much for linking up and sharing your post! Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend!

Great pics for sure! Yep, you will have a bigger bunny family living in your yard for sure before long! They multiply like.....RABBITS....sorry, bad joke! haha. Squirrels I love to watch, but not a fan of them. I had them chew a hold in the eve of my home and move in over my head a few yrs back. Danced above my head all night while they partied! HAHA ...and the Dakota AKA THE KING, a rat terrier, bred for hunting rodents, slept through it all! haha

Oh yes, lots of crazy squirrels in this burb, toooooo.

And one big rabbit. Who leaves babies under my mext door son's back porch. :-(((((((

Then they have to keep their dog, from killing the babies. And it is a fenced in yard, so the small dog is used to being able to run around in it.

Grrrrrr, at that rabbit....

I may be almost as jealous about the outside of your home as I am the inside. Kidding. Sort of. :)

BeachGypsy said...

21 Wits said...

How sweet, they are having fun and your photos of them are a treat to see!

Patti said...

A lot of squirrelly behavior in our backyard, too!

Conniecrafter said...

They are so fun to watch aren't they :) we have all that but no chipmunks, at least that isn't what I have seen anyway. The bunnies run away as soon as I open the door but those squirrels aren't nearly as scared. I miss Peanut chasing them around the yard :(
