Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 06/09/2026I thought this was going to be a Wile E. Coyote situation, but these caterpillars later moved along to more stable terrain to continue their meal. 010
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 06/07/2026The ducklings came to visit! Mama/auntie merganser keeps bringing different numbers of babies - sometimes more, then less, then more again. So I think there’s a crèche nearby. Later they completely passed out in this spot, snoozing in the sun. 010
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 29/06/2026Robins are almost ready to fledge. I thought this one was going to go for sure, but it changed its mind. Sometimes we need a few tries before we take big steps. 010
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 26/06/2026Had a painted turtle lay her eggs in our driveway! Our local turtle conservation folks came and excavated the nest. 3 eggs have gone to their facility for safe hatching. 100
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 19/06/2026This was a such a charming read. I wanted to read the book before watching the movie. Sweet, funny, and smart. 110
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 16/06/2026The hatchening has begun. Mama robin feeds the wee hatchling in the nest while papa looks on. 000
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 11/06/2026There comes a point during nesting where papa robin starts to bring food items to the nest and mama robin will take them in lieu of the not-yet-hatchedlings feeding. It’s a bit of a practice/bonding thing. The first few times he doesn’t quite know what to do. He’ll get the hang of it though. 000
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 09/06/2026Papa robin guards the nest while mama robin is busy vanquishing her arch enemy - her reflection in the kitchen window. She returns victorious. I have now put sticky notes all over the window to try and break up the reflection. 000
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 18/05/2026POV you bought your husband a stuffy to make him feel better last week, and he loans it to you to make you feel better this week. 000
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 10/05/2026One of our local blue jays does a good enough impression of a broad-winged hawk to fool the Merlin app. 000
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 09/05/2026River spelunking today now that the water is low. Found the remains of Penelope the deer. Discovered Sink Archipelago. Many cool rocks and trees were encountered. Soakers were got. 110
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 19/04/2026Flooded woods. This part of our property becomes part of the river each spring. 020
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 17/04/2026Raging river, pollen plumes, and a little blue thing going by. 000
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 14/04/2026The river by my place is really moving. The chunk of woods around the corner and down the hill is, as annual custom dictates, a part of the river now. 0243
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 08/04/2026Squirrel! I spilled some birdseed on the ground and someone got a feast. 020
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 03/04/2026Highly recommend. Every word the right word and in the right place. Characters you can get attached to. Pacing brisk but not rushed. Really enjoyed it. 140
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 21/03/2026Haven’t done one of these in a bit. The doe is inspired by one that had been hanging around the house recently. She was injured and had a limp, but was still doing deer things. Unfortunately we think she got predated sometime in the night. But she left an impression while she was here. 020
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 11/03/2026Today has been punctuated by trees breaking and crashing to the ground. My yard looks like a poorly run logging operation. 100
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 08/03/2026A few chickadees at the feeder. Sorry friends, the squirrel stole the suet ball again. 030
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 08/03/2026Yesterday’s snow fog made my camera think the lens needed cleaned. 040
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 05/03/2026Raccoon fishing for some grub in the river. Must be good food to be worth the chilly water. 020
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 28/02/2026More pigeon pics from yesterday that I took with the big camera. 120
Erin KB @erinkernohan.ca · 27/02/2026Had some new visitors today. We usually don’t get pigeons at our house, but a couple decided to hang out for a bit. 020
