After a busy holiday season, things have really quieted down. It has been an unusually warm January with occasional winter weather.


We got a little snow but it quickly melted away.

The bay hasn’t frozen and there are still geese and duck hunters out there bothering our birds. Wink will be happy when the hunting season finally ends.

BOIDS







We put a cup of puppy chow down for the crows. They expect to be fed at eight o’clock every morning. I ran out of purina and switched to a store brand because the usual wasn’t available. Guess what? The crows show a strong preference for the more expensive puppy chow.

Mammals
The deer have been coming and cleaning up the scratch food. The biggest doe tries to keep the bird food to herself.





Fun with Food
Holidays are over and we are reduced to cooking and eating at home.







Baya and Benji
















We are adjusting to having Baya grace our lives. Benji is not completely on board with it yet, jealous of any other dog getting his attention!
It has been a relaxing early January and it is allowing us to recover from the busyness of the holidays.
Mark, Wink and Meg
Benji definitely looks a bit grumpy. Does he also have to get along with Baya’s feline colleagues?
No and I doubt he would get along
With them either!!
