Tornado warning in my area !!

I'm hearing thunder. The weathermen are discussing a possible tornado on the ground within a few miles of Waxhaw / JAARS.

Foiled !!

Notice the two new black, steel, "baffles" to stop the squirrel(s) from reaching the bird feeders. Purchased, and installed, yesterday, this was my first opportunity to observe and photograph the attempt.... Moments earlier, I watched the squirrel climb up the brick wall planning to get to the big feeder (like September 1st) but the feeder had been moved back to the Shepherd's hook. "If at first you don't succeed, try, try again." He kept trying..., I kept trying...!! And the winner is...??

Twelve worst coffee drinks

Are you tired of my blogs (obsession?) about the squirrels, and bird feeders? Here's a message that grabbed my attention (like squirrel-friend caught my attention last night). If you are a coffee drinker, visit the message (with delicious pictures) regarding twelve worst coffee drinks.

And the winner is....

Almost as good as the Olympics!! Floor acts and aerial acts.

Oops, maybe I should have compared them to a circus?!

I have no idea how the squirrel got up to the bird feeder hanging from the eave. I believed the large feeders were safe after I moved them from the Shepherd's Hooks to the eave of the roof. I was shocked when I saw him five feet from the ground!! Squirrel-friend let me get close, gave me a big grin, and said (again) "I'm the boss." ~~~ From the balcony, a Cardinal chirps. From the sidelines, a bunny wonders if he can join the show.

Granted, the pictures are not very good (too dark). 1) The scene is back-lit; 2) I couldn't use flash because some (most) of the pictures have the glass patio door between me and the "performers."
