Within the last week we have discovered little friends in our very own backyard. One night last week we were going to walk outside. Jenna went to step out on the porch and low and behold there were four furry little baby birds sitting there all curled up. They were the cutest little balls of fur and so friendly. We all were so intrigued we reached out to them and they immediately started climbing into our hands and chirping away. We couldn't take them in because of our two cats would think they were dinner. So, Jenna's sister has taken them in. We get to visit often. We did find out they are baby quails. We were a little worried that they may die without their mommy. Turns out they are very self-sufficient and can live on their own at 2 weeks. For the time being we are all enjoying them.
We have also discovered that we have a Peter Cottontail that has taken up residence in our backyard. He sits out there eating the grass and taunting the kitty cats at the window. Apparently we have really good grub. He sits out there enjoying the grass and being our little mower.
