Right now there are 4 white tailed deer and 2 wild turkeys on the property beyond the ponds  out back.  Boy is mother nature giving me a show!!  I'm here  'til next Saturday so I'm sure I'll have more to report.        

I just spotted a kestrel on a fence post out in the horse pasture. I forgot to mention on my previous post that I flushed a pheasant out of the tall grass in the field behind the house yesterday while riding through on the atv.  This morning I saw a northern flicker in the backyard eating ants no doubt. I also watched a turkey vulture soar over the ponds.  Ahhh a nature lovers paradise!   

Just thought I'd share what I've observed while at my nephews farm in Nunda,NY.  He has 9 acres of land' Off the back of his house is a great view of hills and 3 ponds just on the other side of his property where Canadian geese,red winged blackbirds,deer,groundhogs and a mystery white bird that I haven't identified yet.  Out in the front yard I filled 3 bird feeders and have attracted white crowned sparrows,chipping sparrows,house sparrows,morning doves,cardinals,blue jays,1 yellow warbler,gold finches,red and grey squirrels,chipmunks and rabbits.  OMG I'm loving life here in what I've named paradise.  Oh, did I mention they have 2 horses named Filly and Lacey,a barncat named Stubby (so named cuz she has a stub for a tail)which came with the house 2 yrs. ago when they bought it. And last but not least their dog named Brandy and 2 house cats Lucky and Tinkerbell.(2 goldfish also) Phew so much to keep up with here!  Having a great time!   

Amazing!

[What's a Nunda?]

I wish I could but I'm in Nunda for a couple weeks house and animal sitting. Darn!

LOL...I'll be doing that all next week..house and animal sitting. For two different people...   What's a Nunda? Is that a place? 

It's a town in the county to our south about an hour away from Rochester.

Nice
