13 Lined Ground Squirrel
13 lined ground squirrel (Spermiphilus tridecemlineatus) on our patio today eating one of our cherry tomatoes. He (She?) ate some thyme first-right from the pot. Good life for a ground squirrel. The boys & I found a very wet, barely alive ground squirrel Sunday. It had obviously been half drowned from all the rain and seemed to be barely coherent and hardly breathing. It was laying on its side and didn't move when we approached it. So...we put some bird seed just in front of it so it would have some food right away if it dried out and survived. When I went to check on it the next morning, the ground squirrel and bird food were gone-so I suspect that it dried out and made it back to its burrow.

Our Subdivision River
A pic of the river that formed today in our subdivision after the 5 inches of rain we received today. We're expecting another 3-5 tomorrow. The river formed on the right from a subdivision behind ours and flows to the left to our retention pond.

Finally Some New Stuff
It's been quite some time, but I've put some new pics of the boys up. I'll be getting more up soon showing them during their birthday party, playing on their water slide with friends and on their first day of school, among others.
Looking forward to your comments.
