We get visits from all kinds of creatures at our place.
I never get tired of this picture - this is the sun coming up off my back deck.
My little black cap (I have no idea what this bird is only that he likes to hang out at my feeder)
Same bird.
My Quail - we like having them around in the yard but will still hunt themin the fall. There is more than enough to hunt. A ton of them died thislast winter in the deep snow - people quit feeding them and they couldn't get away from predators. Roper is good at finding them in thefield in the fall. I think they are beautiful.
And tasty.
Red Tailed Hawk - he also likes the Quail.
The smaller of the two Great Horned Owls that hang out at our place.
This weekend we got a visit from a Moose. Just beyond the pasture.
She comes through almost every year.
The other weekend we took a last minute trip up to Lake Roosevelt to check the water levels and ended up doing some fishing. On the way there I saw the only purple Truck I have ever seen.
How cute - I wonder if it belonged to a girl. Actually I kinda hope it belonged to a girl.
Here is where we come around the corner and can finally see the Columbia River (AKA: Lake Roosevelt Recreational Area).
Lookie what I brought home!
A river Walleye! My favorite fish to eat. He messed with my line forwhile before I could hook him. Nevermind my medicine bottles in the pic...
20.5 inches! That is a nice Walleye! Me and Hubby cooked him up as soon aswe got home. Second biggest Walleye we've caught out of there - Hubby has me beat by a 28 incher he caught a couple of years ago.
