Finally able to Mow~

Finally cooled off enough I could work on mowing some of the pastures and just around the house.  

Main sheep/goat aka used to be Icelandic horse pasture, 

grass was a good 2'+ tall in areas.

iphone doesn't take the best photos when on the tractor 

because it shakes so much. 

Really need to go out there with my better camera.

Last two hair sheep and two wether goats in this pasture.

To much grass for them to keep up with.

Baffle the Squirrel ~

 Squirrel Baffle 1 -  Teenage boy Squirrel 0.  

Surprised he finally managed to hang onto the other feeder. Most of the time, he just falls off the tree limb.

Humidity is so thick, it is hanging onto the 

outside of the windows.

How to Mow in Virginia~

 How to Mow in Virginia, the ultimate in Bug protection.

June bug bruises, be gone !

or....

It isn't easy being green.... LOL...

Being silly...

Green car, green motorcycle, green riding mower, 

green tractor....

I sense..... DH likes green. LOL

Indian Fantail Squeaker ~

 Haven't been able to go out and check on my Indian Fantails, DH has been taking care of them for me.

One day he comes in and says, he thinks there is a baby.

First time Theo and Astra only produced one offspring. 

Sadly I did not know about the squab soon enough to get it banded, which is needed if I want to show.

Not that, that has happened yet, though fingers crossed.

Not the best photos.

Garden Photos~

 Even though Maggie passed on last Feb, I still call the shed to the right, "Maggie's Shed".

The Birch Tree I planted nearly 3 years ago, is doing very well. Can barely see her shed any more.

The small bright green thing in the middle of the photo, is the Ginkgo tree my DH bought and planted for me last Autumn.
Very glad it survived the winter.

Also 3 years ago, I bought a couple of PawPaw Trees, DS planted those for me.
One died and the one above I really had to Baby a lot.
 They are very hard to get started.

So last summer, I bought a replacement. 

Was not able to baby it like I did the one above but learned from the previous ones and planted it 

where it gets afternoon shade.

And its still alive!

Find the teenage Squirrel.  

There are 3 of them and they are a lot of fun to watch.

Nari likes to sit there watching them too.

Butterflies ~

Last month DH took me to see the Butterflies.

Was not going to let anything stop me from going.
Had to use the wee Wheelchair and Ice Vest of course 

but I really enjoyed my time out.

Nari and her Teeth ~

Poor Nari had to have 5 teeth out yesterday.

All but one looked totally normal on top but the Xray

 showed another story. 

Spendy  $$$$$    but she should start to feel

 much better soon.

Was told Maine coons and Coon crosses, tend to have 

teeth issues like this.
