recent pics



Coming up on 1 year old. Foz is a blast.



 The before of a project.
 After.

 Alpaca up in the Cajas kind of near "Tres Cruses".( remember to click the pic to enlarge)
 Another before/during.
 Still hard to believe.
The after. This lawn is from seed and filled in pretty fast, maybe a month after popping. I am not setting any speed records on the project list but progress is after all progress.
A fence is on the way as well as a slew of other stuff. I will post as things go so keep checking. We'll ( I ) work on he gaps between posts.
As always, thanks for visiting.

The scenes here are always changing and always cool.

As Ferris Bueller use to say, "Life moves by pretty fast. If you do not stop to look around once in a while, you could miss it."  Truer words have never been spoken.

Trainbearers

 This is a female Green-Tailed Trainbearer.

 Black-Tailed Trainbearer (Black-Tailed have longer tails and a longer more curved bill than their Green-Tailed cousins)
 Black-Tailed

 Green-Tailed male

Green-Tailed female.

We also have the Sparkling Violetear but they are less frequent since we relocated the feeder. How high off the ground you locate the feeder may change the birds that come by so play with them now and then or get several if you have the room. When you find the right spot they put on quite a show that lasts all day every day.

Remember to click the pic for a better look.

That's all for now................over and out

call of the wild


 The stag returned one sunny day and finally the owl. The owl has a wing span of four feet or so. At dusk you often hear his cry as he soars over our valley prowling for a snack.

Things on our end are great and we are really enjoying our life. We have been in our house for 9 months already and man does the time whistle by. We are still in awe and are grateful for our run here.


Oh yea, Happy Birthday Pauline. Have a great day.

Thanks for visiting and keep checking back......................................

stag

 We have seen several deer since we have moved in, usually a pair of them, but yesterday morning this guy was solo enjoying some grass feet away.
 Very similar to the White Tail we were use to seeing in New England. We are very happy to have wildlife in the area. In many places most of the local game has been hunted out, thankfully not here. We also have a resident Barn Owl, trying to get a picture of him has proved difficult so far.

See you next time.
