Rosy: We are roasting our harvest of nuts. We have black walnuts, hazel nuts and acorns. The clinkers are not ready yet to play with. Do you want to come over?

First one to show up and immediately dive into the jackolantern! Crazy to see them get a nut, go 6 feet away, and nicely bury it for later, and that is what most did! Next year, I might have a nut farm out there!

Strobist info: SB700 on 1/2 power to camera right, bounced off the lovely white ceiling of our new kitchen :-).
This little red squirrel found a cozy spot to lean back, relax, and enjoy the nut he stole from the bird feeder in my backyard
Found 4 of these little chaps in the moth trap this morning. Only about 7mm in length but what amazing Insects.
The H-NUT smokestack read “BEECH-NUT” before it was truncated many years ago. It was the tallest part of the baby-food factory that was the center of the landscape and economy of the little village of Canajoharie for decades.
The site was flooded in 2006, prompting the company to relocate to higher ground, and re-development efforts went nowhere. As I took this photo, demolition of the factory complex was into its late stages. I think old H-NUT here was one of the last things to come down.
… I cannot reach the top of this Nut Cracker and need to ask for a ladder to reach out to the screw to be able to crack the glass nugget … unfortunately, the nuts are all gone ….

This is an Eurasian Jay and what you see in his beak isn't his tongue but a peanut. The Jays at Monrepos are usually extremely shy and I was thrilled to get close enough to this one. Last winter I only saw them at a huge distance and wasn't able to take a single photo. Maybe it's a new bird, less shy than the others, or he has learnt in the meantime that photographers are good because they bring food. I hope to see him again in the next months.
There is another capture in the comments. I will certainly post some more photos of my new friend, hopefully not only portrait shots but some which show the lovely colours of his wings.
I dont imagine I'll keep it around very long since Christmas has passed but I liked how this shot turned out well enough to make it my background art.
While in Florida we made a days journey into Okefenokee National Wildlife refuge. Unfortunately with the Government shutdown, the only area open was a Georgia state park embedded in the wildlife refuge called Stephen C Foster State Park. There were plenty of squirrels on the upland trails and I was glad to catch this one eating a nut in some good light.
