The Local Blond Squirrel

I finally got some photos of our local blond squirrel that we call Champagne Charlie named after Leon Redbone's version of the song.  Do blonds really have more fun....I'm not so sure because he used to frequent our yard but was constantly chased out by a black or gray squirrel.  He has been nesting up the street and took a chance to pay us a visit.  The first two shots I took with my phone through the window...hence the quality.  The last one my husband took with his camera and it's a much better shot.  You can see that Champagne Charlie is quite the handsome squirrel!

Visiting Dragonfly - Autumn Meadowhawk

I had the pleasure of this little visitor yesterday afternoon - although he didn't stay around for long.  I think this is a male Autumn Meadowhawk.  He is a smaller dragonfly with a red body and iridescent wings.  He rested on my knee for close to a minute then flew away.  It was a nice calming visit with nature that I really enjoyed.

Pink and Orange Colour Combination

It's probably not often thought of as a colour combination that works, but I absolutely love the colour combination of pink and orange.  I think it's a stunning combination, a bit bold, cheerful, reminds me of summer, a mood booster - and colour does affect your mood.  If you mixed the two colours together you would get pink.....and I love pink too.  I look to nature to find colour pallettes to work with and sometimes I just have to open my back door.  These are the fall berries of Euonymus fortunei.  A happy bit of colour in my fall garden.
