I found deer tracks when I was walking this morning.

I found deer tracks when I was walking this morning.

Then the deer found me. He stared at me for quite a while before I saw him. So of course I sang Benedictus to him. He listened politely with ears erect.

My squirrel friends were with me too. Watching me from on high.

This is a picture of that deer's territory.

But last night was a full moon. I can't believe how it lights up my yard when the moon is full.

PXL_20251204_033726215.NIGHT.jpg — This is looking out of my upstairs door at the ramp to my deck.

PXL_20251204_033928133.NIGHT.jpg — Moonlit stairs to my deck from the ground.

PXL_20251204_033632268.NIGHT.jpg — And looking at the moon through my skylight.

Our pretty little 1800s era cemetery.

Frozen Crow Creek.

A sidewalk that's part of our nature trail system.

It's snowing again in SE Iowa!

A black squirrel in my bird feeder eating black sunflower seeds, of course.

PXL_20251201_170558503.MP.jpg — And all my Sparrow friends. The Cardinal and Blue Jay got away before I got my camera out.

Deer prints in the snow. You can see the line where they kind of drag one of their feet.

Our Town square lights up the Friday after Thanksgiving.

Our Town square lights up the Friday after Thanksgiving.

It's a special day with a visit from Santa and this cart being pulled by two huge horses. The cart was full up.

I talked to the horses and thank them for what they were doing. They nodded on clumped their hooves.

They call us Christmas City.
