@basscat - This really doesn't belong here since there aren't even any "et cetera animals" in the shot, but I knew that you'd appreciate it. In February of 2015, when temperatures began to rise a little after our -20F cold snap, some of the "sleepers" must have awakened to stretch their legs after the brutal temperatures abated and we had a little snowfall. Here's a shot taken just at sunset of raccoon tracks crossing the path near the front of the woods leading down to the river:

That's one of my favourite things about living outside the confines of the city - being able to follow tracks, and to get an idea about the activities of the animals who inhabit the woodlands and riverbank here.

Sorry, all - nothing to see here.

Oh good Heavens how beautiful! I grew up in the country and always thought I'd get back out there someday. This made so homesick I could cry, I don't know how I missed before today.

My sweet Jasmine out in the veggie garden with me, about a week before she was killed. Her and her sister Lily had been lying under the plants, until I called them to come on back to the house. I just happened to bring my camera that day, she stood up and looked at me, as if "what?"

A family of fox moved into the area. They killed a small dog, and several other cats, before they were dispatched. I was grilling dinner, and the girls were playing around me. I called them to come, and they didn't, which was usual, when it was time to go inside. By the time I brought the food in the house, and put a pot on the stove to cook something else, they had attacked and gone. Her sister Lily was on the roof of an outbuilding with a bite on her belly...our hearts are in shreds still...

What an amazingly gorgeous cat. I can practically feel the silky fur through the screen!! :redheartpump:
Thank you, I will tell Korin of the nice complement. She does have very silky fur.
