    This magnificent critter shows up very infrequently, she must have a large territory to cover. I just wish she would put a dent in the gray squirrel population.

    Whats Your Weather Like 2025

    It’s quite sunny at the moment but likely more clouds as the day goes on. Might risk some line drying but probably too cold unless the sun stays out. Looks colder for Christmas and into the Nee Year.
