Backyard Wildlife Wednesday -Old Man Bird

For the past couple of years we have had a cute little bird that looks a bit like someone's Grampy who has hung out in our yard. His technical name is a Curved Bill Thrasher. TC has captured some fun footage of him lately.


As always, feel free to visit our YouTube Channel HERE

Is it just us, or does our Curved Bill Thrasher act a bit like a Grumpy Grampy? BOL

Road Tripping to Texas

 
Happy Travel Tuesday!


A couple of Saturdays ago, Mama and Daddy woke us up early for a big adventure! It's funny how, on the first warmer day of the year,  the pawrents get antsy to get out and about!


After our morning routine, they put us in JeeJee the Jeep....


....and we headed out on a road trip!!!


We hit the road going east on Route 66 for a day of fun!



Mama said we were going to see the furry guy in this Billboard.  The pawrents saw him back in the olden days, before he got popular in Texas, but Sunny and I had never visited a Buc-Ee's. 


We stopped for a few nice walkies along the way.


...and saw a few trains too!


Finally, we crossed the Texas border. I, Rosy, have been to Texas back when I was just a wee pup.



This is a new state for Sunny though.  Daddy says she definitely has a Texas attitude and wears her pink cowboy hat with pride! 


Before long, we arrived at Buc-Ee's!!! 
(For those of you who may not have heard of Buc-Ee's
it is a travel center/gas station chain that originated near Austin, Texas and has expanded to stores throughout  South and Southeast United States.)

We took another long walk around the building, and then took a nap while the pawrents went in to look around and get some lunch!


Mama took WAY too many photos to post, so she put together a video:

I am glad we stopped at the Amarillo Buc-Ees, it was over 1,000 miles to the next one BOL!!!


Sunny is still having a hard time with the whole
"We traveled a total of 8 hours and all we got was a stuffed BEAVER?"
thing.....

It's all about the journey, Sunny...not the destination!

Valentine's Day Nature Friday

Welcome to Nature Friday, where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. Last week, Mama visited the ABQ Aquarium in search of nature. She was pleasantly surprised to see the improvements they had made in some of the exhibits. 

 This little seagull was rescued and now lives over the Stingray Pool at the aquarium! 

She said hello to this little turtle who was warming himself under the exhibit's sun lamp.

....she spent a bunch of time with the jellyfish too!

Plus, you know she visited her favorite furry water mammal, the Otter!!


It was hard to get pictures in the aquarium, so Mama made a little video:

We are wishing all our friends a very Happy Valentine's Day weekend filled with love and nature!!

Happy Galentine's Day!

 
Happy Galentines Day!! 
A fun holiday, celebrating women and their friendships.


Galentines Day originated on the TV show, Parks and Recreation From there, the idea spread through social media and the continued annual celebration on the TV Show.


Mama is actually celebrating Galentines Day by going on a long weekend cruise this weekend with her best friend!! We're sure she'll take a bunch of pictures and share them when she gets back.

She's not leaving her computer password, so we will be MIA until next Wednesday. We made sure to give Mama enough blog posts to "schedule"  through the magic of the interwebs.


What will we be doing for Galentines AND Valentine's Day? 
Well, staying home and getting spoiled by our Daddy of course!!!

We are so thankful Mama gets to go spend time with her BFF and even MORE thankful we get to spend some one on one, quality time with Daddy!! 

Thank you Angel Brian for hosting the
Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!

Working Hard or Hardly Working

 
Welcome to Backyard Wildlife Wednesday, that day of the week we let Mama share some footage TC(our Trail Camera) has taken in our backyard. This week we are going to take a look at the hard working bunnies that would like to live under our shed.  Daddy is working hard to evict them, but they are working even harder move back. 




(As always, feel free to visit our YouTube Channel HERE)

We have a feeling Daddy will win eventually, but we all wish they would go live under someone else's shed!!
