Challenge: Free Sunday - March 3, 2019
Mar 2, 2019 20:48:33 #
A couple of nice challenges last week, quite a collection of collectibles, Transbuff, and you awakened quite a few Photogirl. Thanks for hosting these nice postings. Some awakenings were sad. Will miss the participation, but can’t say the avatar will be missed. So long!
It’s free Sunday once again. Love to see what you have to share that you haven’t already or have reworked for a new take. I actually got out and shot some new stuff this past week. IPhone on some near the mail boxes (it’s all I had with me), and close by in the back yard and the neighbors. It’s all about what’s blooming……

Trumpet vines from the neighbor’s grace our back fence with blooms already.

Thanks for hosting Larry - you're very much appreciated!
This past week we had a visiting raccoon who tried to dismantle our gas grill so we trapped him Wednesday night and relocated him the next morning.

Nice ones Sue like that last one of the escape. Just out of curiosity how far did they go with it? I had one last year, they recommend 20 miles away from people, no township. Let me say that is getting a little hard to accomplish around here.

This is a great story Sue. Sorry, I had to giggle just a little. I need your relocation team.... We apparently have squirrels in the attic. We've set live traps, but either they don't trip the trap or the squirrels are smarter than the average bear. Either way, we still have them.

There's a wildlife refuge about 5 miles from us and over a mile from the nearest house. We've taken at least 8 raccoons out there in the past couple of years - they like to dig up my newly planted flowers each spring.

VERY familiar,,,been there often, done it too. Take them at least 10 miles away or they'll find their way back

Nice one RR. There's that cliff behind the houses again. Way too close for my liking.

I've been waiting since Tuesday to share these. I think it's a Red Tailed Hawk. He almost startled me. I just happened to walk by and look out the kitchen window and there he was sitting on my back fence. It's quite an unusual site to have them this close. Knowing my cat was outside, I immediately became a bit concerned and grabbed the camera.
