Andy and I don't eat out often, but on this day we had talked about it. Eventually we decided we'd rather stay home. Thank heavens we did! Just as we sat down for dinner, we noticed something moving across the road. A bobcat! It just walked right under the deck and up our steps. We're so glad that Tiva didn't bark!
There are several rock walls and wood piles around our neighborhood and hence have lots of chipmunks in the area. In fall, they are busy fattening up for the hibernation ahead. Here are some of my favorite pictures from the season. One eating a pine seed in a tree, another defending its rock and the last one eating lichen.
Andy volunteers with the Elk Bugle Corps at RMNP so leaves the house in the afternoon to go help visitors view the elk rut safely. On this evening, he was most of the way down the hill from our house and saw a badger! Thank heavens he had his camera handy and took a quick pic before he/she scurried behind a neighbor's shed. I am so jealous...
