More From The Night Camera


Wally put the night camera on our peach tree to see what was eating all the peaches. When he put it on our apricot tree a few weeks ago it was a raccoon...about 22 videos of this raccoon stuffing his face all night long. But the peach thief is a deer. What's the coolest is that the camera also caught a bobcat! He's only on the screen for a few seconds of the video but I did upload it to YouTube so if you want to see him you can go HERE.

Huge Moth


This has to be the biggest moth we've ever seen.

Lazy Days of Summer


This is a new squirrel that has taken up residence on our property. She's pretty happy here and really isn't very afraid of us at all. We call her "Dirty Mouth". Her mouth is always covered with dirt from digging and eating whatever she finds in the ground.

Official bunny count is now eleven.

The White Deer


My friend took this picture of a white deer that hangs out in her backyard. Isn't it magical?

Thief


This squirrel spent day after day in our apricot tree chowing down. As Wally was picking apricots to dehydrate, the squirrel was in the same branch picking her own. Now the tree is bare but the rabbits have been finding old dried apricots in the grass. BTW, the official bunny count is now at seven.

Caught in the Act


This bunny is so busted. Wally caught him eating his beans. Too bad, the bunnies can eat whatever they want. They usually just eat the weeds but I think these leaves just looked too tasty to pass up. These are the string beans that Wally built the special climbing tower for.

We have three bunnies and I think two of them are the same ones from last year. As long as we talk to them as we approach them and keep our distance they won't run. I'm so happy they're back.

More Butterflies



These guys were not very cooperative, plus it was windy. I did manage to get a few good pictures before they took off though.

(notice no snakes?)
