A Visit From

Patch of red feathers

brings a big grin to my face—

Downy woodpecker

Skat@2022

A belated Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to one and all!

Parasites

Chipping sparrows have

Already picked up sidekicks

For winter, ticks on.

Stocking Up

Aerial battle

Bluejays vie for monkey nuts

Mid-air collisions

Skat@2022

Nasturtiums

All summer long they

Battled night-munching earwigs—

Now they’re flourishing!

Skat@2022

Distracted

I’m in another

Headspace at this current time;

I’ll be back someday!
