Mama, I think there may be a bit too much snow in the living room!

Nature FFF - A Beautiful November Hike

 

Welcome to the wonderful Friday each month where Nature Friday comes together with YAM Aunty's FFF!!  Make sure to visit YAM Aunty HERE to get the Rulez and join the FFF fun!! 

We totally missed Take A Hike Day this year, but today I wanted to say how very thankful we are for our local hikes. Last week I went on a special Mama, Daddy and me hike along the Rio Grande River. It is a very pretty trail about 15 minutes from home.

It was a beautiful day and the Rio Grande was pretty full because of the rains we had in October.

We had a beautiful view of the Sandia Mountains along part of our walk.

The trail was surrounded by beautiful Cottonwoods wearing their lovliest Autumn gold leaves.

As you can imagine, I was all smiles, mostly because I got to stop and smell EVERYTHING! 

Daddy and I make good walking buddies because we both like to walk and he makes sure to stop whenever I want to stop and smell something.  Mama, well she likes to "meander" look for the "perfect shot" for the blog like the artsy one above of me and Daddy under the leaf. 

 I really think this was the most beautiful hike we had all year. 

I am so happy and thankful to have so many hiking trails less than 30 minutes from home!

I hope all our friends get to see some nature this weekend!

Show us your nature! It can be flowers, your current weather, a scene out of your window, or maybe a picture from a vacation, walk or other journey! Any kind of nature picture will do! If you don't see a link below, click HERE  to go to our Hoppity Page.

Thanksgiving Eve Quails

We are celebrating November with gratitude again this year.  Every day during the month we will find something to be thankful for, be it big or small, to share with you.

In honor of US Thanksgiving this week, we wanted to honor the wonderful and delicious Turkey...BUT unfortunately, we don't have any turkeys that visit our backyard. Instead, we have the cute squeaks of  the Gambel's Quail

What's that Mama, some people think quail tastes like turkey?

I don't know...they may be too cute to eat.

What do you think??

Happy Travel Thankfuls

We are celebrating November with gratitude again this year.  Every day during the month we will find something to be thankful for, be it big or small, to share with you.

When we think about everything we have to be thankful for this year, we can't forget traveling.

We may not have gotten out as much as we wanted to, but we had some fun times on the road in 2025.

We started off the ear with a fun day trip to Amarillo, Texas to visit that silly Beaver, Buc-ee...

...and see the painted cars at the Bug Ranch.

We took ArCee to Tucumcari, NM where we visited Ute Lake

We went on walkies among the Lava beds in Grants, NM

and visited the Veteran's Park near Elephant Butte, NM.

 

We are so thankful for all the places we visited in 2025

and can't wait to see what the 2026 travel season brings!

From Mama: Speaking of travel,  you may not see us commenting the rest of the week as we will be enjoying a little vacay time.

We do have posts scheduled and the FFF-Nature Friday Blog Hop is ready to go.

November at Sasebo Gardens

We are celebrating November with gratitude again this year.  Every day during the month we will find something to be thankful for, be it big or small, to share with you.

Welcome to Nature Friday, where we get to meet new friends and share a picture or two of what nature looks like around Blogville. This week we are back to show you around Sasebo Gardens for its November color extravaganza! 

We very thankful Mother Nature is putting on such a beautiful show this November. Today we are going to take a peek at all the different colors Sasebo Garden had to share this month.

These photos left both Mama and I pretty speechless and we thought it would be nice to keep quiet let you admire the beauty the Garden has to offer.

Here is a short video :

Thanks again to Sasebo Gardens (and Mother Nature) for showing us just how beautiful the change from Summer to Winter can be!

We hope everyone get's out to enjoy some nature this weekend!

Thankful for Sisters

 

We are celebrating November with gratitude again this year.  Every day during the month we will find something to be thankful for, be it big or small, to share with you.

Today, on Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday, we are very thankful for each other. In fact, Mama and Daddy might be even more thankful than we are. If you are new to our blog, you may not know that we didn't always get along and for a few years, we couldn't have posed this close together. But with lots of patience and training (along with some medication for Sunny) we now play together, pose together and this year we have progressed  a step further!

We can both snuggle together on the couch...

WITH THE PAWRENTS!

This is something we couldn't have done a year ago, Mama and Daddy say this is definitely one of their top thankfuls of the year.

Flicker Fun

We are celebrating November with gratitude again this year.  Every day during the month we will find something to be thankful for, be it big or small, to share with you.

Seeing the Northern Flickers flitting around the fountain has us feeling pretty thankful on this Backyard Wildlife Wednesday.  Some of the Flickers stick around for the Summer, but we don't usually see them as much in the fountain.  It's nice to see them hanging out again:

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

Thanks for sticking around Northern Flickers, we hope to see you around all Winter long!
