Hello Everyone!

Today I am sharing my first ever Communion card featuring wood embellishments from Scrapiniec and papers from Pion Design collection "My Dearest Sofia". Communion cards are supposed to be simple designs, how hard was that for me!! lol

Life has been a tad crazy for me here this last while. With my squirrel nursery now open for business and I have also taken in my very first baby raccoon! Feedings every 2 hours makes it difficult to find time for anything else, but it's totally worth it!!

BABY RACCOON!

Does everyone remember my raccoon friend Big Kate? Well she's the proud Mamma of three little babies! I've named the two larger boys Lesley and Wesley. There was a wee runt too, and I've named her Little Kate! This is one of the boys!

"Oh, it's you again. Are you going to follow me around all day? I'm getting bored of posing for you!

~Cher Cher~

My little friend Dale. I still haven't gotten a clear view to see if Dale is male or female. Either way, Dale is such a special little squirrel and I'm so glad to have met her. I mean him, I mean her... Doh!

"I know what you're gonna say human, but I'm raising like a billion babies, so I'll lay down in the buffet if I want to!

We have had some wonderful weather this last week, and I have been keeping very busy working on the patio to get it ready. Installed some super fun rice paper hanging lights, got a new bistro table and MacGuyver-ed some fun new seat cushions! All I need now is to the actual set up, add some flowers and presto... it's summer time on the patio!

Chickadee-dee-dee-dee. Having a little hand held buffet lunch.

Gotta love these adorable birds!

"Mom, are you sure this is how you do it,

because I'm flapping my wings like crazy, but nothing's happening!"

"Oh yeah, I'm just gonna snuggle right up to this branch! So comfy!"

~a trail friend~

"I'm just gonna go real slow, sneak right in here, and take this peanut without her even noticing!"

~a trail friend~

My newest little buddy Dale has heard me calling. He's still very cautious and won't approach me, but he's starting to recognize my whistle and the sound of the bag of peanuts! For the record, I don't know if Dale is male or female yet, so his name should fit either. Lol

That's it for today. Thank you for stopping in and for all the amazing comments. If you have any questions or interesting tidbits about today's wildlife, please let me know.

Lots of misty days this week as the temperatures start to rise again, and look... the first signs of life with these white flowery bush things! YAY!!

"Hmmm, spring is kind of windy!"

~Mr Nuthatch~

I know spring is definitely here when the Robins arrive!

Can't wait for Robin baby season, my favourite!

"Excuse me!! I'm trying to say something here!!!"

~Gosling~

"I don't know who you are human, but anyone who brings me treats is welcome back any time!"

~a new trail friend~

"Any chance I could get you to drop the bag of peanuts and back away!"

~another new trail friend~

"Alright now, how am I supposed to concentrate on eating my lunch when this wind is blowing my ears off!"

~yet another new trail friend~

...

So many new faces this spring! Guess I'll have to name a few of them!
