Some Neighbours Came By Last Night

A number of our neighbours dropped by last night.

It started with our first sighting of a flying squirrel in several months.

Shortly after we had an opossum come by for the peanuts.

He was followed by our friend Pepi.

Not to be out done two of our deerest friends stopped over but decline to stay for photos, so I have used an older picture..

Have a Happy New Year.

Yup. we've booked the Woodland Wanderers, couldn't get the Swinging Orangutangs, they were booked.

Buffet is all set, black oil sunflower, niger, shelled peanuts, suet and a special treat - grapes.

She has always been fascinated by deer and we aren't sure why?

Folded rocks.

Image
One of the interesting yet unadvertised sites in Newfoundland is the folded rocks near Port aux Port. You have to ask locals exactly where they are and how to get to them but it is worth the effort. This formation is also called the Faults & Folds of West Bay Beach. "The folds of rock are related to the churning tectonic activity that gave rise to the earth's mantle hundreds of millions of year ago." For scale I am about 6 feet tall.

My Cat is Stranger Than Your Cat

Okay this is weird; I’ll give you that right up front. We got Maggie from an animal shelter so we don’t know her background. We have found out that, if you don’t latch the bathroom door securely, Maggie will come crashing in to visit. She promptly climbs into your pants and makes herself comfortable. Now I don’t normally take a camera into the bathroom, however, this is regular thing with Maggie so, now you know the story. Sam, the black cat wants to know what Maggie is doing. Sam seemed quite upset over the blow to feline superiority.
