RANDOM SHOTS

Canada geese remind me of...

Crows have been seen putting nuts on a highway to be cracked by

passing vehicles.  The birds are so intelligent that they placed the

nuts only under the wheels of smaller cars, as prior experiences proved

that by setting them under a bigger car, there are slight chances

to find the kernel.

A finch photo I took when I should have been working

on other stuff.

According to eHow cottontail rabbits can run at speeds up to 18 mph

and are also good swimmers.

The new crop of squirrels in our neighborhood 

are becoming more bold as they gain size.

This one climbed up to the window trying to get to the bird feeder.

 He didn't make it, but he cleaned out the seeds scattered on the ledge.  

Minus the one that stuck to his nose. 

Or maybe he wanted to watch Rocky and Bullwinkle on our television.

Or maybe he was just looking in my window because he saw a nut.

Fun info:  Cigarettes are like squirrels.  They are perfectly harmless

until you put one in your mouth and light it on fire.
