My contribution to Eileeinmd's Saturday's Critters #134. I had collected seven while using the weed whacker, I was trying to make sure no tiny toads got hurt. After I was through, I managed to get one pic in before the remaining four hopped away.
Remember that deer who hung around for photos and videos while munching away in Ashburn in June? (In the middle of the poison ivy, I might add.) I took four of them, here's a third:
I'm also linking to Anni's I'd-Rather-B-Birdin'. Theda and I went to visit the Broad Branch ducks, but there was only duckweed.
How about a birdie platter? Mrs. Cardinal is sharing well with the sparrows. (The night before, Mr. Cardinal was chasing them off vigorously. Of course, when he'd pursue one a few feet away, the others would dash for the seeds.)
Some Blue Jays decided to come visit this morning, as well:
How about a profile shot, Mr. or Mrs. Jay?
Mouse over pics for captions, and click them for larger versions.

Hello, those are tiny toads. You are so kind to rescue them before using the weed whacker. The deer is sweet and I love the birds. Theda is a cutie too. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend!
Love the deer video!
Have a great week-end!
Well thanks for showing those tiny toads against the ruler. They really are incredible. You must have good eyesight to find them in the vegetation.
Great shots. Beautiful Blue Jay.
Great captures of the blue Jay! We have some living in our trees:) Missing your presence on my blog and hope to see you at SEASONS where it's all about the experience of the SEASONS - Settling in July 10-13 (photo link is open Sun- Wed evening).

P.S. Forgot to say I put seven of them on that ruler after I was through weed-whacking.
I knew I wouldn't have much time...
