Today’s critters are Greater White-fronted Geese also known as Specklebellys. They’re flying south probably in search of open water after the recent cold snap.

Today’s critters are probably Whitetail Deer but whatever they are, they sure left a lot of tracks in the snow behind the house.

Today’s critters are Eastern Bluebirds. Can you spot all 3 on the top of the fence? Bluebirds huddle up in weather like this and I’d guess these will be spending the night in the nest box they were going in and out of.

Today’s critters are a committee of three black vultures on the sycamore behind the house. There were originally five but two flew off before I could get a picture.

Tonight’s sunset from the front porch. Have to take advantage of the winter. Before long all the sunsets will be behind the neighbor’s tree line.

With temperatures in the mid 60’s, won’t be building a fire today. A Grateful Dead iPad Yule log will have to suffice. Please enjoy 15 seconds of the bridge from China Cat Sunflower into I Know You Rider.

Today’s critter(s) are varmints. I’m guessing whitetail deer are mostly responsible. But could groundhogs, raccoons, possums etc be involved? Loblolly pine, pecan, red oak and black cherry are damaged. Anybody know who’s responsible?

Today’s critter is the neighbor’s Cow. When you graze in the weeds you might end up covered with cockleburs. Coincidentally we both served as vectors for weed seed dispersal.
