Just some random photos I cleared off my camera the other day.
.
.
This was the last sighting of our blue eyed fawn from last year.
.
.
Photos were taken in January and though we’ve seen some full grown deer this month, it’s hard to tell if he’s among them.

Can you see the visitor in this pic?
.
.
It’s a Red Tail Hawk who uses our backyard as his hunting ground.
.
.
Close proximity to the bird feeders makes for some tasty dove nuggets.
.
.
He’s a young hawk and is still mastering his technique.
.
.
While it’s hard to see piles of feathers litter the ground, these birds of prey really are fabulous creatures. And if he swoops down and claims a certain red rodent….. I can’t say I’ll be heartbroken.

River's world..... 
Well keep us posted as to Mr. Hawk and Ms. Mafia Squirrel, I’d love to hear how that turns out.

Love red-tailed hawks. Love watching them soar, circling over the field, then diving and catching a vole. Your mama squirrel and her spawn better be wary.

It’ll be a sad day in blog land if red squirrel gets the chop.

But cause for celebration at Casa River. Margaritas are on me!

I asked for a margarita last night and was denied. I had to suffer a gin and tonic. Perhaps the death of a red squirrel is necessary if it means a good margarita.
