Mouse In Mouse House





This little mouse house is built into our entertainment center.  Little Jo wanted to put our pet mouse in here to play.  I took a few quick pictures before it could pee and poop everywhere.

Tufted Titmouse Comin' for a Landing On My Hand

Today I found Our Cat Cricket Having an Intimate Moment With Sponge Bob...






My nephew spent the night last night and brought his Sponge Bob over to sleep with.  This morning I walked in the back room and our Cat Cricket was tearing him up.  I took some pics of her...I didn't pose her.  I don't really care for Sponge Bob anyway.

Chickadee and Tufted Titmouse




We were snowed in today here in Ste. Genevieve, so I took some pictures of some of the birds that visit my feeder.  The Chickadee picture was taken at my mom's house and the Titmouse pics were taken from my kitchen window.

Tufted Titmouse Eating Mealworms From My Hand


Have I told you I started raising Mealworms last summer?  I wonder what they taste like.  Pic. taken from my mother's bedroom window.  She gets the credit for taming these wild birds.

First Mole Captured This Year: Jan. 5, 2011





After I caught this mole alive, I calmly held him and asked him how he was able to evade my highly trained mole hunting skills for 4 weeks.  He told me to go back to work and to leave his kind alone.  The nerve of some moles.
