Here's a multi-angle sequence to show just how soggy this little guy was.

A tiny white-breasted nuthatch, scampering around in the upper stories of his Oak hotel.

A few years back this guy was a regular in our old garden. Very rare, 1 in 100000 apparently, and they rarely survive long as the white makes them an easy predator target. He was around for a couple of years. Albino Squirrel.

Well it looks like I'll have to refill the deer feeder.

This American Wigeon is preening herself - and like human beings, the best way to do that may be while looking at one's own reflection.

After a whirlwind trip to Point Reyes and lots of birds in flight, we came home with 4400 photos so I'm still going through them. But these are the healthiest coyotes I've ever seen (one is slightly cross-eyed lol)!

They are basically big doggies...but not quite domesticated. OTOH, my wife might argue the same about me 😹

Yus, YUS, YYYYUuuUSSSS ... The bigger the doggie the better ... Gets lost in daydreaming for a Dyre Wolf.

I am a big fluffer too, I pee on trees, I scratchy back with my foot, I bark at strangers, I always lick my plate, I howl at the moon ... Oh, I almost forgot, and I have the attention span of a Labradoodle .... SQUIRREL

Technically, hedgehogs are wild animals and have never been 'domesticated'... but perhaps the fact that this one is made from beeswax might qualify it as an honorary wild pet.
