Hummingbird and Gold Finch

[judy]

Armadillos! Take a picture please!

We get beautiful deer, rabbits, chipmunks, squirrels, mice, voles, porcupines, groundhogs, and of course, black bears. There are coyotes, but I have only seen one. I'm sure there are other animals I don't see. There are wolves around, but they don't come out here. Someone told me they are really from New Jersey, when they had too many.

I hear the most wonderful assortment of birds! There is a woodpecker nearby. I hear something that sounds like an owl, plenty of songbirds, hummingbirds, and I saw a robin yesterday (I think). I'm not up on bird species, but when I let the dogs out before dinner and in the morning, the different birds singing are such a lovely noise!
