Life On and Off an Acreage

In-sights into moving from an Acreage back to Town, plus a few things I find of interest.

Two things that horses are scared about:


1. Things that move
2. Things that don't move




Old enough to be eccentric, but not rich enough

What's New at the Pond?


The Northern Shovellers are back and paired up.


 The Buffleheads have arrived and are strutting around the pond
 This one here seems to have found a mate already!
 They are a very pretty duck with the high contrast black and white crowned by iridescence on the head. It's very hard to capture the colours! 
 Then there were the Muskrats swimming around and doing?
 I can see where the "Rat" part of there name comes from.

 They are very, very agile in the water, and fun to watch.

Every day seems to bring new surprises to my birding, animal areas. Now that we have had our last snow, I hope, I can get out more often! We are forecasting temps in the double digits starting Wednesday. That is around 70C for all you unilingual folks.

Have a great day!

  1. Glad to hear you are warming up. Getting nice around here in Kentucky, finally. I enjoy seeing these ducks. Not something I usually see. As for Roscoe the name of my daughter's Jeep...who knows why she chose that name :) But, she does love Roscoe.
