Ruby's pick

The whole of nature, as has been said, is a conjugation of the verb to eat, in the active and in the passive.

~William Ralph Inge



It's warmer today, but I got a new seed, beef suet and peanut supply, so the feeders are swarming. Ruby, Queen of the Peanut Ring, spends most of her time between selecting peanuts drumming and chattering at Nelson and the gray legion of squirrels(me as well). She has spit and fussed so much that they stay away from the circle of nuts. The feisty little reds rule here. Busy Nuthatches too, so charming making their selections upside down.

Peaceful two level cat living is working out so far and we're settling into it. Having them both within sight helps a lot. Last time they were so violent when they saw each other that we had to keep them visually separated as well. Max seems relaxed, Raspberry is still first understudy if needed for the Grinch, a true piece of work-
( thank you, ~AmErica), that Madame.

For the Record,
This day came in warm with heavy rain on the way.
