On a hot day...

Our guests are bathing furiously!

I was taking pictures & movies through our uncleaned windows and screens, so the pictures are not clear enough...

American Robin

I recoreded some movies too.



Oops!
Radio was on.

Re-tried.



Wow.
They can still fly!


Soon after the robin left, three magpies came.

They looked very curious. They must be siblings born in this spring (my husband said).

Unusual Visitors

We've been having unusual visitors recently.

The first one.
Where did you actually come from?
うさぎちゃん

He is definitely NOT a wild rabbit. We have no idea whose bunny he is. But he seems to be surviving in our backyard and neighbors' as well.

Sometimes, he gets a treat from us.

Not sure yet? It' yours.

But now.
"That's mine!"
うさぎちゃん:とうとう食す。
He is kind of a sweet visitor, which we appreciate to see occasionally. But we also got a surprising visitor a week ago.


Gopher Snake!

He was totally tangled in my tomato nets! Probably tried to get released, but it got even worse.

Well, I wasn't able to do anything. Kind of scared. So just waited my husband got home.

Finally, the rescue started!

Luckily, our neighbor lady was there, and she was so brave to help my husband. Wow!
So, I got a role to take pictures.

Oh, what a day!
