Yesterday we had very high winds. Our normally calm lake became quite choppy, and it's just a small lake... or large pond, depending on your definition of lake. And it's not really "our" lake; it belongs to the community, but we can see it from our window. I took the geese pictures from our deck using a zoom lens.
The thing I like about our yard is we not only have a lake view, but also a mountain view. It's the Massanutten Range. On a foggy day we can't see it very well.

Charlie figured out that he can reach seed without sitting on the perch. He just hangs from the top!

Beautiful Geese and the Squirrel, love 'em.
ReplyDeleteI've seen squirrels out-smart us humans so many times...they're highly intelligent & eventually get what they want!! Pretty images using your zoom for the geese.
ReplyDeleteSharing this blog post with us at I R B B this weekend is much appreciated, thanks!
Great goose shots.
ReplyDeleteHard to keep the squirrels away, I feed them also. They still bother the other feeders , but are comical to watch.
ReplyDeleteEnjoyed your pix
ReplyDeleteHello Linda!:) You are so lucky to live by a lake, and have a mountain view as well. Lovely geese and squirrel shots. Squirrels are crafty little rodents, and soon figure out how best to obtain food not meant for them, but what can we do!!:=)
ReplyDeleteNever underestimate the ingenuity of a squirrel!
ReplyDeleteI was just trying to talk my husband into getting a squirrel proof feeder a few days ago, I guess it's good he won the argument as your photo shows it wouldn't have helped. My lazy squirrel was sitting on the deck rail waiting for me to put out seed while a Bluejay was on the ground getting acorns. I had a few words with him about that. Your photos are beautiful as always!
ReplyDeleteI'm totally convinced that if squirrels only had thumbs they could rule the world -- they are such smart little imps. You live in a perfect place -- lake and mountains in view. Wow.
ReplyDeleteI love your geese photos. That squirrel is a crafty one.
ReplyDeleteHello, sorry I am late commenting. Our internet and power have been out due to a wind storm. I love the cute geese, pretty birds. Thanks for linking up your post. I hope you have a happy week ahead.
ReplyDeleteIt seems the squirrels are winning the day - and honoring the name of your blog!
