So many fine photos everyone. Gee, I think I only missed a day & a half but there was lots to catch up on. You guys have been busy taking photos!

Sitting on the back porch earlier *without* my camera & watched a male bluebird take on 3, that's 3 squirrels. He was getting the best of them too! We put up a bluebird nest box about 7' high & the bluebirds are rearing yet another brood in there. It's located roughly 15 or so feet from the blueberry bushes. The squirrels were climbing all over the blueberries --- there are many ripe ones now --- & the male bluebird was *not* happy with their proximity. He would screech & dive bomb them & in the end he won & chased them all off for good. That is, until the next go round. Hilarious!
I am a strong believer in the simple fact is that what matters in this life is how we treat others. I think that's what living is all about. Not what I've done in my life but how I've treated others. ~~ Sharon Brown
