Groundhog Day

6/13/2009

It’s been quite a week for wildlife.  Around the house and in our various travels we’ve seen Marsh Hawks, Great Blue Herons, a Rose Breasted Grosbeak, Turkeys, and even a Pileated Woodpecker!  But this little guy was probably the cutest.

A mother Groundhog and two young ones have been hanging around the house for the last couple of days and it has been really fun watching them.  But this little guy was probably the most adventurous – we were amazed that he came right up to the sliding glass door to have a look inside!

Make sure to check out those huge claws!  Yikes!
