I still have those feisty pine siskins hanging around! They can empty a thistle feeder in less than 10 minutes.
My red squirrel likes to eat all the spilled birdseed off our deck. Aww!
Can you see my Chickadee singing? He was either singing for a mate or food - or Both! LOL!
Can you spot my junco in the tree? These birds usually don't leave until winter is officially over.
I hope you enjoyed today's cabin critters and that sunshine is headed your way!

You got some great pictures of your critters. I'm glad the weekend turned out so well after that bad start with cars stuck in the snow.
I just love the birds you have in Michigan, and your pictures of them. The squirrel is cute too.
We got snow again last night, but most of it is gone already. Looking for warmer days by the end of the week.
Glad the guys had fun playing paintball and you were able to stay away from being their target.

Glad youir weekend turned out better than it started!!
Have a great day, Denise
Beautiful pictures. You asked what I was going to do with the sea glass. For now just enjoy looking at it. I need to collect a lot more before I think of using it.LOL Sharon
glad you had a good weekend! we had snow this morning when we got up, no spring for us yet!
Great pictures, Shelley... Those siskins are so cute... I just wish I didn't have so many of them!!!! At least I haven't seen any sick ones. AND---I did tell George today that I think some of the siskins are GONE. Yeah-Rah...
Glad you had a wonderful weekend despite the car problems.
Hugs,
Betsy
Gorgeous photos-- Rain in store for us today.
Love seeing your furry and feathered friends!
Hi Shelley,
I just love to see all your great critter pics! All your photos are so beautiful.
I hope SPRING arrives at the Cabin soon ;)
Glad you had a nice weekend.
Have a wonderful day!
Hugs-Kath
Great photos!
you know what? that chickadee was singing to YOU! thats right, he loves it when your at the cabin and he knows he's gonna get seeds and get his picture taken.
The pine siskens are like that, I had them here this winter too. Haven't had them in about 10 years, hope it's another 10 years before they return. A pretty little bird, but little piggys!
What cute critters! No paintball splatches? :D
Those are some great photos of critters around the cabin. I need to fill my feeders so that the birds will hang around.

Glad the bad start didn't mess up the weekend. I loved all the photographs...much better than paintball.
You are the Dr Doolittle of Michigan. :) great pictures.
Your photography is so inpiring, Shelley! Makes me feel like I'm right there in the middle of it all!
I'm sorry to hear you are still having snow. I think enough is enough of the white stuff. After all, it's supposed to be spring!
I wonder, do your siskins throw all the seed on the ground/deck like mine do? It's driving me crazy and I keep thinking maybe it's just the seed I bought is too cheap.
The Chickadee is singing for warmer weather if you ask me!
That little chickadee is so adorable. We just want to eat, er, cuddle him! We want your snow Miss Shelley. We're snow dogs and we craves snow! Have a good week.
Hello to Marvin!

PS-Please let your readers know today is the last day of our Spring Fling Give Away!
I personally hope that you spend many weekends this Spring and Summer, photographing. And my second wish is that you continue to share ALL of them with us. Your photography is AMAZING!!! My favorite...the Chickadee.
I'm always conflicted - I don't want the squirrels around the bird feeders, but I also like it when they visit! LOL
I just love seeing the pictures of all of your little critters ♥

Those photos are wonderful. Nice it all turned out OK in the end.
Cute little critters. Glad you had fun hiking and don't have to suffer from bruises from paint ball. The time my fair skinned daughter played she had bruises for weeks (o:
Glad the whole weekend was not bad. I am so glad our cold is basically gone, no snow here. Rain for the next few days, but it is still suppose to stay in the 50s.

I LOVE your pictures and promise not to share how warm it is here!
I'm still trying to pinpoint the owl we keep hearing in the woods!
Great critters! It is amazing that we see so few critters at our cabin, probably they don't like leaving their hillside homes to come near the shore. I did get some goose and duck pictures. I'm waiting for the swallows. There were here this time last year, but everything seems to be a few weeks late this time around. - Margy
Enjoyed looking at all your wonderful captured moments of the birdies. I love how you captured all the birds details - you can even see their personalities - Great Job!! :)
Those are some great photos of your critter friends, Shelley! I'm glad you all had a wonderful weekend after the start!

Do you take (friendly) bets on when the ice goes out in your lake? One of our local lakes puts a chair on the ice and the ice is 'out' when the chair falls through. On our lake, we consider the ice 'out' when you can get to every dock by boat. Not for a while yet!!
No snow on the ground after a warm day yesterday, though! =)
that pine siskin photo is GREAT.
