Run Mimi, Run

So what do I do when I’m stuck in the house on a bitterly cold, mid-January day ?

Well, I head outside with the camera to catch the Wild Kingdom in action, right in my own backyard.

Run for your life Mimi. Momma Red-tail is cold and hungry.

Sidney to the rescue ?? No, he just spotted a squirrel.

“Better them than me,” thinks the little Nuthatch.

No wild animals, pets or photographers were in any way harmed or injured during this photo shoot. Nor is the photographer responsible for placing the smiley face bow in Mimi’s hair.

The Red-tailed Hawk had flown off by the time Mimi and Sid came out to play. The bad news is that this Red-tail has been hanging around our backyard for quite a few days now.
