Seen from My Window

One of my older cameras has a pretty good zoom lens so I keep in on a table in front of the window that has a view of the lake.

The other day I saw a fire department crew spraying water into the lake. I don't know whether they are testing the equirpment or just letting off pressure.



We have bird houses in our yard and little birds have been nesting in them.



This morning I saw a couple of rabbits in our yard. Here's one of them. Later when I came home from the store, I saw a baby rabbit near our driveway, but I didn't have my camera ready so he escaped having his picture taken.

Yesterday I missed another cute shot when I saw a squirrel carrying her baby in her mouth! She crossed our deck and went up a tree.

Finally some neighbors got the fountain working in the lake. It helps to add oxygen to the water, keeping algae down. 


By this morning, the spray height was reduced. Perhaps the nozzles are already clogged. In the final photo, we see Frank enjoying the view this afternoon.

  3. You have a lovely view in front of your window. That is a beautiful fountain in full spray. Looks like your neighbours have to keep unclogging the nozzles. The lake view is lovely even without the fountain. Have a good day!
