I may not like the full moon (because it makes my kiddos act like the little white lottery balls waiting to be picked) but it does may for some beautiful photos.

I was just getting home from a walk with my dog when I felt I needed to capture this image, but didn't know why. After listening to many podcasts this weekend, one theme was very clear. Change. Maybe this is a good representation.

Sometimes I'm glad the birds are vocal. I think this is a good color scheme.

🎶I always feel like somebody's watching me 🎶

This is a good way to start the weekend.

I was standing in my driveway when these crows decided it would be a good idea to fly back and forth between a tree just across the street and some trees in my backyard.

If I have to attend a CPR class at least the location has a pretty nice view.

Got my kiddos down for their nap and decided to step out onto my porch just to enjoy the sun shining on the yellow leaves still on the trees. Didn't expect the side eye from little Ms because one feeder happened to be empty.

I'm glad some of the trees here in Vermont were a bit late to start changing.

Nothing like just sitting down to get comfortable when you hear Mrs. Cardinal reminding you the feeders are empty. (Nice of her to say thank you as well😊)

It's early morning walk views like this one that help start the day with a clearer head.

Can't seem to get any cleaning done with these mouthy things outside my window.

When you are headed out to your Zumba class but the birds would like a word.

Birds taking cover from the rain (with great colors in the background).

Maybe the change of season has more than one meaning this year. Photo taken in Vermont.

If you're going to be listening to podcasts about world events on your morning walk it's good to have views like these to help keep you balanced.

The cardinals don't seem to mind when I still have kiddos running around in my backyard.

Best way to clear your head here in Vermont, take a walk around the block.

@timmiller.bsky.social I know you don't like the cold, but I hope you enjoy the color while in New England!

Nothing like a walk in the fall here in Vermont to clear your head.

The clouds seem to be loving Vermont’s season change.

Apparently Vermont is going to have a moderate winter.

Early morning walk views.

The cardinals around my house definitely are not camera shy!

Just because something isn't aggressive, doesn't mean they won't fight. (Mr. Cardinal was letting everyone know it was his turn)

Whether the sun is shining or the colors are illuminated by a street light, there's just something about Vermont in the Fall.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fm6... As I was watching this episode of WThH with @hcrichardson.bsky.social and @jbf1755.bsky.social , I couldn't help but wonder if part of the issue is people see [democracy is at stake] as abstract, but data centers are very concrete??

Today's the day. If everyone does a little, we all can do a lot. $9.25 on 9/25 is a great way to honor Dolly Parton.

Glad Mrs. Cardinal wasn't worried about the hanger that's half off.

Stalkers!

Morning walk views

Nothing like listening to music while watching the sunset here in VT to clear the head.

I'm easily distracted by sunsets.

There are not a lot of things that would stop me on my way into my Zumba class. Mr. Cardinal is one of them.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-r3... I tend to listen to youtube while I clean (as a childcare provider, I do a lot of cleaning) and I sometimes let youtube decide what I listen to. Made me think of the interview @hcrichardson.bsky.social did with @jamestalarico.bsky.social

Todd Blanche never stopped being Trump’s personal attorney, which is why he is trying to revive the so-called ‘anti-weaponization’ slush fund Trump wants for his January 6th insurrectionists.

Ready or not (I'm not) Fall is coming to Vermont.

It's one thing to see cardinals out my window, it's a whole different ballgame when it's a crow.

There's just something about seeing a sunflower while on a walk.

The cardinals have been so vocal over this Labor Day weekend.

I was getting ready for work this morning when I looked out my window and it seemed lighter. All my eyes could see was clouds so I wanted to see what my camera saw.

I don't see hummingbirds often so I wasn't keeping up with nectar. I get so many other birds I was feeling like to didn't want to be greedy. When I saw this one it made me think; it's better to be prepared because you don't know when someone will show up.

Quite a sunset as this week comes to a close.

Whether it's keeping up with world news or getting frustrated that my fan on an air conditioner will not turn on, when I look out my window there they are. Those cardinals😎

I love when Mr. Cardinal stops by to say goodnight.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=iiQo... I tend to listen to youtube channels when I am cleaning. I don't always like youtube choosing what I listen to next, but occasionally I find it just right. I was surprised to hear the words of Todd Blanche from a phone call. @hcrichardson.bsky.social

I live 25 minutes from the Canadian border. My great grandmother came to Vermont from Canada. (I still remember her heavy accent). I'm glad to see our Republican governor make this statement.
