Red Squirrel


Red Squirrel, originally uploaded by Campobello Island.

Minus 22 degrees outside today and I didn't have the heart to drive the poor little squirrel from my bird feeder. There were two of them one eating on the snow below the feeder and this little guy who spent a long time shelling out sunflower seeds.

Machias Walk January 23, 2011

The Pathfinders walk was in Machias yesterday. A sunny but cold afternoon we were all dressed appropriately for the weather and were quite comfortable once we got going. We usually have a snack after the walk but yesterday we returned to the parking lot half way through and had coffee, tea and delicious homemade brownies before setting out on the second half of the walk.For three mornings in a row it had been minus 12 degrees and it actually felt a bit warmer in Machias. Not so warm today though minus 22 this morning, glad we are not walking today.
