Rabbitt 2

(continuing story)

Rabbitt had walked quite a distance, and got tired and very hungry.

So he sat down under a big tree to rest.

He unpacked his backpack to find something to eat and drink.

Rabbitt 1

This is little Rabbitt.
He has gone out...
He has packed his backpack, because he wanted to see more of Life.

Dunnock

Dunnock is coming every day, even more than once.
Finding little snacks under the feeding table.

I like the posture of this little bird, standing steady astride.

Falling star

Yesterday night, I was talking with one of my friends on the phone.
It was already dark outside, and I had not yet the lights on.
Suddenly there was a shooting falling star in the sky…!
I was so amazed that when he had gone out, I realized how special this moment was.
It has been many, many, many years ago when I saw one realtime.
No camerashot, but in my memory it is still vivid.

Fluff

The Fluff, is always very interested, in what is happening outside.
Especially when a squirrel is roaming around.
He curiously is looking where the Squirrel is going with the nuts. 

Squirrel 2

This morning Squirrel came along again.
I had no camera near by, only my coffee, my notebook and my pen.
so I scribbled a quick doodle.

He had found a piece of bread and started having his breakfast right in front of my eyes..

Squirrel

For several days, I have seen a squirrel visiting my garden.
Immediately I put some nuts out, to let him come closer…
so I might try to make some pics.
Not that easy as he is extremely fast, running away before I can even focus my camera.
Few days ago I had some nice photo's as I thought, but the light in the early morning was too dark.
So were all unsharp.
Today He came again, returning to some nuts he had not noticed before.
Most of the time he is running away with the nuts…
digging, hiding them on a far away spot.

Today he decided to eat one.
He jumped on a nice spot, for lovely pics!

Rain

Yesterday my internet connection was out. no mail, no surfing, no phone..
Today it still did not work!

I phoned my provider, and found the problem…at least it is working now again.
Yesterday it was raining all day long, not like today as it was a nice autumn day.

Woodpecker crash

This morning I heard a loud thump against the glass window.
I looked and I found Mr. woodpecker laying on the ground.
I thought he would not survive the crash.
I thought it would be better not to pick him up, maybe I would make it worse if he panicked.

He still was breathing a little bit…
But it looked so bad.
I prayed.
I had not much hope, prayed some more...
The bird was completely in a shock. He hardly noticed me coming close.
Some time later I checked on him again.
The sun was coming through and warmed him a bit, which seemed to be good, because the wind was rather cold.
Than some time later I noticed he was a tiny little bit more alive, though still in a shock, he blinked his eyes.
He sat there for a long, long time.
dozing and coming alive a little, little more.
I felt so sorry for the bird.
Than after some more hours he was gone.
Later this afternoon he came along near the peanut butter jar, but he could not fly very well.
He tried to drink some water.
Later I put some food on the ground, for him easier to pick up.
Maybe when he comes back he will find.

final drop

Even the jar is completely empty,
Mr.Woodpecker wants the final drop.
