Close Encounters

It's amazing the things you can see out the window if you just keep watching long enough. 


Constant Vigilance!


American Goldfinches (Spinus trisis)

Some of them are deeply tantalizing, while others are downright terrifying; but either way, many of them are fascinating. And there's a certain thrill that comes from seeing scary creatures from behind the safety of a good window.  

I'm thinking of starting a life list of sightings. Here are some of my recent sightings that I would put on it, ordered from least to most terrifying.

If you have interesting sightings to share, please leave me a comment!
American Robin (Turdus migratorius)

White-tailed Deer (Odocoileus virginianus)

Chevy Volt (Chevrolet volt)

  1. Dear Thera,

    Closer to the "deeply tantalizing" end of the spectrum, I offer for your enjoyment this recent sighting: https://www.flickr.com/photos/104705786@N06/50037629218/

    1. Ooooooh! That is truly tantalizing. It makes my tail twitch just to watch it. I'll definitely be on the lookout for one of those!
