You didn't think that the gray jay was the only thing of interest my friend and I saw on our Sunday drive, did you now?
...For some reason, the black-capped chickadees came within six feet of me as they flitted all around the bare trees and shrubs along Spring Creek...I had to un-zoom the lens...
...Ok, now I can say that I've seen a bear in the Black Hills...near Mystic...
Chip looks real cool with his eye stripes - show us some more of him Jann!
ReplyDeleteThe chickadees come very close to me when I'm working outside. The chipmunk is a cutie.

I love the photo of the chipmunk, Jann, and the bears pretty cool too! Is your Black-capped Chickadee the same as our Coal Tit, I wonder? Does it have a white stripe on the back of it's head?
ReplyDeleteThe chickadees are friendly here too, when the feeders are empty, I can hear them complaining, then they wait nearby while I fill them!
ReplyDeleteWe natives call the last critter a "Squirmonk"! That covers two kinds with one word.
ReplyDeleteI like the new header image and have it on my link image . . .

I had a pet chipmunk that hibernated in the dustmop - I didn't know it, and when I picked up the mop, out rolled the little guy, all curled up into a tight ball. I put him back in the mop, and there he stayed.
ReplyDeleteNice shots. LOL re the bear!
