When the nightly buffet of apples and deer grain is laid…
.

.
I also put out some special grain free dry dog food with taurine for the fox and skunks.
.

.
Problem is the woodchucks and ducks like it as well and scarf it up quickly.
.

But sometimes they have competition.
.

And a stand off with Starlings begins.
.

Sometimes it gets physical.

Starlings can be tough.

Grudge match at the buffet! Let’s get ready to rumble! Popcorn, get your popcorn here! Wait…not you, starlings! Help!
So River, I miss you at my site, my friend. You always have something witty or interesting to say. Unfortunately, I can no longer tell who visits or from what geographical location people are visiting from; which makes me sad. So the only way I know when someone stops by is when they say “hello.” Anyway, I hope I see you again soon! 🙂

Unfortunately I can’t comment on your blog from WordPress and because I have too many friends with outside sites, I’ve had to limit my commenting to this site… otherwise I spend way too much time navigating on my phone. But I miss you too! Can you enable commenting here?

So I don’t even use the Reader function. Never have. I’ve bookmarked all the blogs I go to and so I just make my way down that list. There’s many blogs I go to that uses a different format instead of Word Press, too. I don’t know why WP is the way it is and why it won’t let you just click on it and allow you to comment. So much has changed since I first started blogging. So now I have a “Commenting Issues” section at the end of every post I write. If you click on one of those helpful buttons I’ve provided, it should take you right back to my site and then you can comment. It’s worked so far for many of the people who’ve had problems commenting. I mean I understand that it’s an extra step, but that’s the only way I know to overcome the system. I mean without you and others, what’s the point of blogging? I hope you get a chance to try it. If not, I understand. I’m not sure what you mean by “enable commenting here.” If you give me clear instructions on what to do, I can try. I just don’t want to blow up my site. Mona

I think your site hates me. I left a comment on your latest post but it didn’t take. Kept telling me it was a duplicate. Grrr…

Nope, it didn’t recognize you at first. It does now. Your comment went through beautifully! 🙂

Okay this is ridiculous. I noticed you’d been dropped off my following list so I re-followed. 10 times! And it keeps kicking you off my list. I don’t get it.
