Groundhogs

As soon as I signed up for the A to Z Challenge, I knew that my G would be groundhogs.

We had several groundhogs move into our backyard last year, and I absolutely love them.  They’re so much fun to watch. 

We set up a little critter corner, mainly for the groundhogs, but we have also had other visitors (some of the other letters in the challenge will be about some of the other visitors).  I put out food and water for them, we set up a trail cam, and I love watching the videos of the groundhogs enjoying their snacks.

They like bananas a lot.

They love broccoli.

And corn is one of their absolute favorites. 

I know a lot of people consider groundhogs to be pests, but they’re not hurting anything, so we’re peacefully co-existing with them.  I love that they’ve chosen to live in our yard.  

Blue Jays Eating Peanuts (Blogging from A to Z Challenge)

Last year, I set up a little critter corner in our backyard to feed the wildlife that stops by.  We also set up a camera so we can see our visitors. 

Recently, we had some Blue Jays stop by to eat some peanuts. (The date and time on the camera are wrong because it messed up when the batteries died and we haven’t reset it.)

Enjoy this video of the Blue Jays enjoying their peanuts.
