I get the odd blackbird singing in front of my window and that is sometimes so beautiful it makes me cry. But how I wish I had a whole range of cool animals out there (you can keep the lizzards and spiders, though ;)!<br /><br />Thanks for telling us a little about all of them, you had me "ooh" and "aah" and laugh and I liked the gophers and the little elf owl! You were right, it looked like she was hanging from a tree in a very unhealthy way. How funny she threw a little tantrum before she left! I'm sure the reason was that her owl kids were waiting to be fed but she wanted to stay with you!!<br /><br />Love<br />NinaNinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12758454252683265564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1168792825239178484.post-80384597094847311072010-08-26T20:13:17.925-07:002010-08-26T20:13:17.925-07:00Great post Laurel!

Never was able to get a picture of them, but a few times each day they would come roll in the dust behind the tent for a quick bath. <br /><br />Nice pictures of the owl too!

I loved the pic of the elf owl looking straight at the camera.<br /><br />Here where I live (on the coast in rural UK) there is a plethora of wildlife - and some not-so-wild. At the moment the birds and butterflies are plentiful and I just love watching them. We also have rabbits, but not just outside the window. We do have sheep though!CATachresishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10227422179439047735noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1168792825239178484.post-52855681224910231932010-08-15T10:13:53.251-07:002010-08-15T10:13:53.251-07:00It's amazing what you can see from your window...It's amazing what you can see from your window.

What a treat!!<br /><br />There is something very soothing (at least for me) about observing wildlife especially when you are stuck in bed. Not to mention what a wonderful diversion from reading or watching television.<br /><br />You reminded me that I need to get another hummingbird feeder. I am not able to enjoy looking out my window quite as much since I sold my house but I can still enjoy the hummingbirds!<br /><br />MichelleAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1168792825239178484.post-72370205276076336732010-08-15T08:53:00.015-07:002010-08-15T08:53:00.015-07:00Laurel a wonderful post.
