As the sun was setting just the other evening, I witnessed a charming sight. A bloom-covered branch from a neighbor’s yard had found a way through our fence. As I tried to find a good vantage point for a photo, the setting sun also made an appearance. A small treasure to be enjoyed in these times!

Sunset as seen from our farmhouse in Gozo, Malta

Pine warblers are common summer residents here in South Jersey, usually arriving in late March. I say "usually" because this male was spotted at my suet-feeder on March 2, weeks earlier than I've ever seen one. And a second Pine Warbler showed up just a week later!

Start a sprinkler. Add a little sunlight. Stand back and enjoy.

This is what the Bobcat was looking for.

Looking for Help

Mom and three kits were caught on camera almost every night in our backyard. Mom and one of her kits stopped showing up. Concerned for the two little ones left behind (and visible on camera) I called the Fish and Wildlife Dept. When I told them mom and one kit had been gone for two weeks, I was told mom was probably NOT coming back, that she was either dead or trapped. After speaking to them we decided to let nature take it's course. Eventually, they would leave on their own.

Well, I am really relieved to say after over 3 weeks mom and the other kit are back with the two left behind. The three little ones were rolling around in the yard as if they were happy to see each other...and all four walking the fence line with mom in the lead! (Now I can sleep better!)

I appreciate your visit and so grateful for your comments/faves!

Stay safe and healthy!!

Backyard Pool it has been a wet week, several inches in the last 3-4 days, I hope the birds clean it out, shot in North Carolina.

Dendrobium aggregatum (syn.lindleyi)

It was late afternoon in shade, I had to crank up the ISO for high shutter speed , but introduced noise. This image is heavily cropped as the lens was only 200mm.

BACKyards Series

Often the facades are maintained and the care erases the soul and the history of the houses and their inhabitants.. maybe the truth lives in the back yards?
