A Walk Around the Barn

Meeting these common creatures on a short walk never fails to lift my spirits.

On the Lookout

Wachusett Meadow is “deer” to me.

Residents are often just hanging around.

Look who’s coming to dinner!

A perfect score for the Otter Synchronized Swim Team.

You “otter” visit the Audubon, too!

Follow the Fur

Most Eastern Gray Squirrels don’t have the brown face and back stripe that this one, seen under the feeders at Wachusett Meadow, does. That makes it easily identifiable, and a perfect candidate for following this winter. I’ll be noticing how much time it spends under the feeders, how far it travels along the nearby stone walls and trees, its feeding habits, and its social interactions.

The Apple Rascal

This Eastern Gray Squirrel has gone nuts for our apple tree.
