He will deny it, but I have a record proof. There’s a $500.00 reward to any tip that will lead to an arrest. Follow up: A week and a half later I found the apple 🍎 wedged in a nearby tree. I’ve never seen this type of squirrel behavior before.

Hummer Up Close
While changing their food I decided to hangout to see if I could get close. Hummingbirds need to eat every 15 minutes, so I thought I could wait em out.
RIP Minnie Pearl
Sadly tonight Minnie passed away.
La Familia Glamping
Its been a few years (2017) since we did any camping with the family, so we were lucky enough to have Cait make rezzies (in March) at Costanoa KOA. Sadly Cait and family couldn’t make it. Upon arrival we settled in and had a 6:30 appointment for wine tasting followed by a 7:30 dinner rezzie …

Duckie Prequel
We have a duck that has decided our backyard is the best place for a nest sight. We are waiting patiently for the hatching ceremony (approx 28 days). Oddly a crow has decided to harass it. She lays on her eggs for days at a time while her mate waits bored out of his mind. …
Scratch that itch
One of the hummers allowed me to get close enough to shoot these.

While eating dinner we kept seeing this Robin running back and forth. It turns out she is making a nest in our Bougainvillea plant. I may have to install a Robin Cam. The following morning I spotted this… I suspect the squirrel is using the eggs to make french omelettes.
