Wildlife Around My Parents House

I just had to share these pictures. My mom just sent them. They were taken by their neighbour last weekend:

We have plenty of these guys. They are so pretty and elegant looking



These two were right by my parent's house

This makes me so sad.

The bear is eating chicken from my parent's garbage, on their neighbours lawn



How cute and fluffy are these two? It makes me think of my guys for some reason. Heart warming.




As much as I enjoy living where we live and having nature around us, some of this nature, like the bear's, have no where else to go. One of the workers told me that 9 bears were killed last year because of this monstrous sub division that has gone up here in Sooke, and it is only getting bigger. It just devastates me.

Our New Neighbors

We were so excited to discover that there were birds in our bird house over the weekend. We sat and watched them for a long while, while the birds flew in and out, checked out the house and then flew away, and then back again.


  Can you see the birds little head sticking out of the house?



I realize this is virtually four identical pictures, but seriously! How ca-ute are these birds!

We aren't familiar with birds, but Rob thinks they may be sparrows. If any one does know what type of bird they are, we would love to be enlightened:)

After the kids went to bed last night I saw one of the deers I haven't seen for a while. I have been wondering what happened and if it was okay. It has this huge white patch of fur, and I was worried it was sick, but out of the corner of my eye I could see it wandering through our neighbours lawn.

This is one of the baby's from last year. Rob thinks the white is from the deer shedding it's winter coat. The other deer don't look like that though, which is why I was worried.

 Rob and I are hoping the deer will consume that broom. We both have hayfever and it is driving us CRAZY!!
And here is another deer that's just cute, so I had to take a picture.

I just love living here. We have plans to make another bird house, so we can have more bird neighbours.
