Yesterday, I received a visit from a single mother with three youngsters. She stopped by for some unripe peaches.
It was very hard to get photos of her cubs because they were wrestling and running up the peach tree and quite unwilling to stay still. At first I only saw two cubs. But then the family went on high alert. Two of the cubs left for the woods and then a third came barreling out of the peach tree and followed them.
The mother followed shortly thereafter. I only saw the bears because Molly made a dash downstairs to watch the activities in the front yard. However, she makes the same dash for a squirrel or a moth, so I wasn't expecting much.
Despite all the visitors and packing, I have made more pickle wedges. I have 15 more wedges to make and then I can move on to the rest of the quilt.
Buddy doesn't know which project he prefers.
And here is another vintage butterfly...oops...let me amend that. Here is Molly's hind end heading upward while the vintage butterfly block falls downward.
And here's Molly looking around the design wall to assess her damages.
And here is the vintage butterfly block without kitten kommentary.
All the bears, butts, and blocks are looking good!
ReplyDeleteNot sure if I am excited for you that you get such amazing wildlife in your backyard, or annoyed that they are eating your fruit! Blocks are looking great.
ReplyDeleteBlue pickle wedges are lovely--funnee kitties ;)))

Now that pic of Buddy makes him look almost the same size as one of those cubs. Poor thing. Love the pickles...
ReplyDeleteWow! Bears in the yard and triplets no less! I so love hearing and seeing the antics of Buddy the moose and Molly the acrobat ;-)
ReplyDeleteMolly has a cute fuzzy bum. I love the butterflies! Oh, and I think Molly may have been testing their aerodynamic capabilities.
ReplyDeleteWow...the bears! That's something we don't see in Portland...much. I love your pickle wedges.
ReplyDeleteOhhhhhh...I like the Pickle Wedges laid out in snake fashion. Hmmmmm....
ReplyDeleteOhhhhhh...Yikes! Bears. Totally unbearable.
Bears!! Woah! We have two bush turkeys that muck around in our shared yard, sometimes a blue tongued skink. Certainly never a bear!
ReplyDeleteMomma Bear looks pretty big!!! The cubs are so cute, did they clean out the peach tree?
