Tiny Cute Things

Another in the "a picture is worth 1000 words" series. Tiny cute things are good that way.....


Kittens gone wild!

"These are not the kittens you are looking for...."

And what are YOU looking at???

The M is for "Man, am I cute!?!?!"

Chipmunk we saved from Uncle Kevin's cat

One could say we gave it a helping hand....

Blink if you're thankful!

More Cats, Part III

Due to popular demand, some more kitten shots....and just so they don't get all jealous and depressed (cats can be soooo emotional!), a few shots of adult cats too....

One of the Twin Tabbies

Torty so ugly she's cute!

Pooka, the Mother of All, er, Three Cats

When we bought the two recliners, THAT one was supposed to be mine.....

Krazy Kardinal

So we've got this wacky male cardinal, who enjoys attacking his own reflection in car mirrors and windows. Every time we look outside, he's at one of the cars, staring into a side mirror and then flying straight into it with much flapping. The Juke is especially enticing, with over-sized side mirrors.

We have yet to actually capture him on camera "attacking", but here are several that were close....





In Bloom

Ah, Spring....grass, garden, flowers and dandelions....not necessarily in that order...

Rototill we meet again....

Something borrowed, something...purple?

Now THIS is Spring!

Beautiful few days after much rain early in the week. Finally dry enough to cut the rest of the grass without stalling the mower.....though pretty soon I'll just have to start cutting it ALL again anyway!

Flowers, trees etc. in full bloom. Dandelions too, unfortunately. Hoping to till the garden for planting tomorrow.....a full TWO months behind last year! (the tilling, not the planting)

Stupid long winter.

Tulips.....or three?

They're baa-aack!!!

The first cut is the deepest

The Circle of Life

Just days after losing our feathered friend, Jean Pigeon, spring re-birth has returned to us life. Daffodils and tulips continue to bloom, AND we gained three new kittens! Our erstwhile barn cat was noticeably thinner when we arrived home today, and soon after we found three tiny tabbies nestled away in the man-garage.
