Assorted Critters
We've seen a number of critters of various sorts in our travels over the past few weeks. Here's a selection of them.
We saw this small herd of Buffalo on a ranch up the peninsula last week, a farm we saw a similar herd on last fall.
I was weeding in the garden a month or two ago, when I heard some scratching. Looking up at the shed, I found 3 young Red Squirrels scampering around on the outside part of the roof that extends out a bit - and chattering madly.
We've seen lots of cattle grazing. This herd was on our Mystery Garden Tour, part of a much larger group moving slowly across the field.
And another couple of curious cows I saw a couple of months ago.
There are a fair number of horses in the area, usually too far off to get a useful picture. But this one was right by the fence, and interested in who I was briefly.
And the Keppel Croft Garden I visited awhile back had a small sheep herd, housed in this nice old barn.

The bison particularly draw my eye. I remember years ago there was a place that had them in the Milton area, on the west side of the Escarpment.
ReplyDeleteNice critters. I especially like the pictures and story about the baby squirrels. :-)
ReplyDeleteLovely photos of different critters . We have Bison farms down here with in the native communities . Thanks for sharing , Have a good day !
ReplyDeleteThat barn seems awfully tall for sheep. Does it have an upstairs for hay or something?
ReplyDeleteWonderful farm critters.
ReplyDeleteSquirrels are my choice for today, maybe because we do not have any here.
ReplyDeleteWonderful critters all of them! The squirrels are so cute.
ReplyDeleteLove the baby squirrel!
ReplyDeleteYou caught a lot of nice shots of those four legged critters. You saw quite a variety of animals.
ReplyDeleteWonderful variety of critters. The bison are cool. And the red squirrel is a cutie! I love the horses, sheep and cattle. I wish I could own a farm with these critters! Great post! Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteNice pictures. Enjoyed seeing all the animals.
ReplyDeleteThose red squirrels are nothing but trouble, they will chew up wiring and what ever else they can find. I enjoyed seeing your Buffalo and the sheep barn...very pretty setting:)
ReplyDeleteAs age & health conditions ha ve somewhat reduced my more strenuous activities photography & writing have taken their place as well for me. I've enjoyed your blog...:)
ReplyDeleteNice to see red squirrels, they're getting displaced by the grey ones. Love the buffalo, too!
