on the kitchen window

Believe me, I do not go out of my way to photograph insects. It’s just that they sometimes tend to hold still for me like this moth on the kitchen window. It did eventually make its way out the window.

a little notch in his ear

By the time I recently made it home from a trek along the Mystic River, I was tired but I hate to take midday naps, and so I stood with bleary eyes at a window just staring into the branches of the magnificent oak tree. I once found a raccoon asleep in that tree, and what do you know, on that particular day, what do I see but the bright eyes of a young squirrel looking back at me.
Separated by a pane of glass and at least several feet of air, he knew he was in no danger from me. We just eyed each other for a bit, and then he decided enough was enough, and just curled right up and went to sleep.
I watched his tail sway in the afternoon breeze and suddenly decided maybe I’d take just a little nap myself. 🙂

… it is a fly and I don’t like them in my house either … but there is beauty in its design. This red-eyed creature posed on a rail by the Mystic River.
