Nutkin, The Usual Suspect

My contribution to TexWiscGirl's Good Fences #52:


The draft for this post has sitting around since January with this picture. I cut that tree up to free the driveway, and then spent the next week shoveling snow out of it a few times.

Another bird picture from back then:

Here's a sky photo from Tuesday:

The squirrel looks like it feels the way the lady sculpture does b/c it can't get to the feeder.

Unusual sculpture..I'll bet she got a bit cold this winter in the snow! Great that spring is coming, no more snow shoveling.

Is that your driveway??!
That's one h*** of a lot of shoveling! No wonder you have so many birds!

Love the first one, and the benches too :)
First I thought "why is she crying"?
Then I saw that that poor thing ain't got no clothes on. ;)
Have a beautiful day

WooHoo, this was fun, I felt like I was walking along with you. Except of course, I'd probably still be taking shots of that incredible statue. Very nice.

Really nice shots!

The squirrel looks as if it's about to swing around the bars - very gymnastique!

the white painted fence looks very neat :)

Lovely fences, and the birds are also there.

How long did it take you to remove that tree? Most of the trees in my neighborhood have been seriously trimmed. I had a couple of fallen branch close calls with my old car. One time, I missed having a branch cream my car by about ten minutes... there's something to be said about leaving for work early.
