Hi all, welcome to my new backyard! Well, I guess I share it with Sunny and Jakey but it is moooosssstly mine! Today, I'll be giving you a little tour so you can see the lay of the land. There is so much to share about this yard that I'm sure there will be many more installments to come!
As you can see, I am standing by Sunny's waterfall. I think it is a little scary, but Sunny just loves it and I know she'll be back in another post to share more about it!
Here I am under one of our apple trees. The previous owner, Sandy the Golden Doodle, says apples really to fall from this tree! She also said something about them being nommy! I'm not suppose to tell her pawrents about that so.....
I'll just show you all the buds on the tree...
...and an apple bloom close up!
Nothing about Sandy and the nommy apples!
I really thought we weren't have to worry about Easter ears or Easter bouncy head things...but Mama insisted
(and I was paid well)
Here is the other apple tree, this one is a crab apple tree and Sandy mentioned that it is yet to produce any nommy apples!
Mama was SOOOO happy to see there are two Forsythia bushes in the backyard! In the Ice Age, when she was young and lived in New Jersey, she could always tell Spring had arrived when she saw these pretty yellow blooms!
She smiled even bigger when she saw that we have THREE lilac bushes!!!
They are just now starting to bloom, but I'm sure the house will be filled with the pretty smelling flowers soon!
OK Mama, this is ridiculous! I am not a bunny, I am a BUNNY HUNTRESS!!
You are lucky you have those nommy
treats in your pocket....
Mama says one of the good things about me turning from hunting birdies to hunting bunnies is I don't chase the cute little quails that live in our backyard!
Mama is a bit obsessed with them. This is Big Quin, the leader of the Quail pack. He and his lady friend run around our bird feeder area collecting morning and evening meals!
That's right, the birds have their own little habitat in our backyard. But, as I mentioned, we don't bother them much because you know,
BUNNIES!!!!
We also have a hummingbird that has come to visit. Mama doesn't have any pictures of him yet, but you can bet your bippy you'll get a look at them this Summer!
I hope you enjoyed this little tour. There is so much more to show you, but don't worry, you'll be seeing plenty of backyard fun in the months and years to come!
OH,
and be sure to stop back Monday...Mama might have ummm, been real busy
and temporarily forgotten about some Sunny's BIG 02. As Big Sister, I reminded Mama and we did some shopping on the down low
yesterday and will be surprising Sunny with a pawty!!!
