Saturday's Critters #215

Welcome to Saturday's Critters!


If you love critters and all God's creatures like I do and also like to blog about them and take critter photos this is where you can share your critter post. Link up your post and share your critters, join in with my critter party ! You can share any kind of critters the real ones, pretend ones, statues and paintings, a new or old post!

I am sharing some of my backyard birds and my grand-doggie Nibbles. I hope your enjoy!

January 13th the Blue Jays again were numerous visitors.





Jan 17th another dusting of snow, a squirrel, some Cardinals and Sparrows were on the deck.


Jan. 19th the Red-bellied Woodpecker is a daily visitor, they like the suet, peanuts and peanut suet balls.




Jan 19th, one of the squirrels came to the window, I think he was asking for more bird food.


Jan 12th the Pine Warbler chowing down on some suet.



Chinese Zodiac, it is the Year of the Dog. I am sharing my grand-doggie Nibbles.  This was my son's phone photo. Nibbles, she is a cutie!









I appreciate and thank everyone who links up their post and for all the wonderful comments this past year !

  1. Wow - just love the Blue Jays - so different from the ones out here on the West Coast. We saw a few when we last visited our son and his family in West Virginia. Cute hungry squirrel and such a cute Grand Doggie - and cut name.

  2. Dearest Eileen; First of all, Thank you very much for mentioning about 'Year of the Dog' in Chinese Zodiac which we use♪ Nibbles is truly a Lovely Girl♡♡♡
    I LOVE the scene of blue jay with snow; and felt envious for the varieties of visors you always have(♡^.^♡) I checked the word suet and learned what it is p:-)
    I appreciate the wonderful link and enjoyed your nature pictures.
    Sending Lots of Love and Hugs from Japan to my Dear friend, xoxo Miyako*
