CRITTERS

Breakfast around the campfire with the critters.

A light rain fell all night long. It was great sleeping !

A crackling campfire and a hot cup of coffee, shared with the critters. This morning the clouds are hanging low as we have breakfast around the campfire with the critters. Here is a video look.

Stellar Jays, Chipmunks, Hummingbirds and Golden ground Squirrels

Campfire smoke nearly hides some of the critters.

Campfire, coffee, camera and critters, a great start to another day in the Rocky Mountains.

Here is a much shorter video that will load quicker.

Feet up, coffee and camera in hand

Early in the morning we make our rounds, then it’s coffee, campfire and critter time !

Oscar saw the video of the critters eating on the stumps ... his tail started wagging, his front paws were patting rapidly at the floor, and he had a big grin on his face.

I think that was his signal for "Let's get up there, Pete!"
